I'm trying to get a jump start on Mother's Day cards. I need a few for my own gift-giving, and a few more for orders I've received. So, I got started today. Like all holidays, they sneak up on us before we know it, so I figured it's best to get busy now. Once Friday comes, and I have my surgery, I don't know how I'll be feeling. Planning ahead is always best.
This card is based on a sketch from a darling little Russian Challenge Blog:

Here is the sketch.
