Hi everyone!

Here's a look at this month's kit with it's fabulous Best Mom Ever stamp set, gorgeous embossed/die cut card front, yummy papers, fun chipboard hearts, and so much more! I love the muted pinks, greens, and browns in this month's kit. This kit is an obvious one for Mother's Day but also works perfectly for dads, weddings, anniversaries, etc.
Here are two cards I made for the hop using the same sketch. One is for Mother's Day...
...and one for Father's Day...
Here's my full supply list:
