Hello friends, I am so happy to be a part of this amazing blog hop by Altenew called Celebrating Parents and I am guessing you are coming from Natasha Davies post.This past year has been very challenging for all of us especially for our elderly parents who have missed seeing and being with their loved ones. I have missed my mom as well, who visits me every year, but wasn't able to do so because of the pandemic. I am especially excited about this blog hop as this is to celebrate our parents and grandparents who we have missed so dearly.
As part of this celebration, Altenew is also sending cards for the elderly that live in nursing homes or shelters to let them know they’re not forgotten. Please check out the Celebrating Parents Card Drive and join this great cause by sending in your beautiful handmade cards.
To celebrate Altenew has a giveaway in this hop. I have all the details to the Giveaway at
the bottom of the page. I have added the blog order to the bottom of this post as well. So grab your favorite drink and hop along!!!
My card is an Ode to my mother whom I call "MA". She has been a very strong influence in my life and continues be one, she has made me the woman I am today. I will be sending her this card to tell her how much I love her and miss her.
Fo my card I used the BAF Cora Louise Peony stamp as the focal image. I colored the flowers with Altenew Artist Markers. After coloring I die cut the word MA with bold alphabet dies.
Don't forget to check out the card drive and to send in your beautiful creations. Have a wonderful day and happy hoping. Next stop is my wonderful friend Sandhya Iyer
