A Dozen Roses for Mom

Tracy here today from the Idea Closet and I wanted to share a beautiful idea for Mother's day.

Mother's Day is just around the corner and I wanted to make something special and from the heart  for both my mom and my mother-in-law.

(I think I will even keep one for myself!)

In the mean time, I hope you will check out my blog to find lots more ideas, tips and projects made with designs from SVG Attic!
