Mother's Day Linky Party at Craftin' Desert Divas

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today brings a new Linky Party at Craftin' Desert Divas hosted by Tara.

Party Theme is...Mother's Day

Since my Mom passed away in 2010 unexpectedly at an early age, I make all my projects for my Mother-in-Law. She is the nicest person I have ever met. We call her the "Leave it to Beaver" mom since she is just like June Cleaver. 

Here is my project...

I made this 3-D apron box for her since she likes to cook.

The box was easy to cut and assemble...I found it on the Silhouette On-line Store.

I added a MOM tag with white twine and a Craftin' Desert Diva Simply Said XOXO stamp from the newest release.

The box will hold quite a few A2 cards with envelopes (I put 5 in my box easily) or a stack of recipe cards.

Hope you will join us for this crafty party at Craftin' Desert Divas! The more you link up, the better chance you have to win! Visit Craftin' Desert Divas for all the rules and to play along.

Be sure to check out the other Design Team projects while there.

Stay Creative,

Georgiana

M is for...Memories, Mother, Maryanne

My mother recently passed away at the age of 54. It was very unexpected and I haven't told anyone (except immediate family) until now. Perhaps it will make it easier when I go back to school on Monday. 

Today I decided to work on a page to help remember my mom. I know it isn't much yet, but it will definitely help me to work on this project everyday until I am happy with the results. I still need to add some colorful butterflies, ribbon or gems.

 I am going to put the page in a black shadow box once I am finished.

Please enjoy your family time. Life is too short!

Take Care,

Georgiana
