YES, I am so one of those moms that makes a card for every single holiday. I know, but seriously…who would expect anything less from me? And, it just wouldn’t be fair if I didn’t share our cute boys and this cute card with everyone.
I took the photo of the boys back in early January when it was too cold to do anything. I pulled out my backdrop — that NEVER gets pulled out for anything because I am not a “studio” type gal, but I had a vision and it required THE backdrop! Dressed the boys in light blue and jeans…no shoes and pulled out the R that I covered in red plaid back when Tyler was a baby {sigh…he’s FIVE now} and this is what it produced. 5 minute fun session with momma and I was as happy as could be. I know what I wanted the front of the card to look like {right side of image below} and I knew what I wanted the back to say {left side of image below}. My grandma ALWAYS said to us growing up that she loved us a “bushel and peck and a hug around the neck”. I just love that saying. And, I have really been digging the popular subway signs so that is where that inspiration came from on how the words were placed! Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy. Can you tell I have had WAY too much of my boys Valentine’s Candy? LOL
May this day of Love be filled with more Love than you can handle!!
X’s and O’s, sararose
You make the best cards! Of course you have some of the best models :) I love that saying my sweet granny used to say that to me too. It brings back some great memories-thanks.
