Happy Mother's Day!!!

My mom is a never-ending song in my heart, Of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words But I always remember the tune. -Graycie Harmon
Mother's are amazing people...I have the best one on Earth and I am thankful everyday that she is my Mom and my Best Friend!!

I pulled out my Basic Grey Kioshi paper and used my Favorite piece for this card, the layout is Mercy's sketch this week. I added Stickles, Pearls, a simple sentiment and ribbon to the gorgeous paper, simple, but with this paper I didn't want to get too elaborate.

I found this quote online for the inside...
