I think being a mom is the hardest job in the world, but during a PANDEMIC? SHEESH. Add moming to homeschooling, disinfecting all the things, keeping people from losing their minds, doing Zooms, working with all those humans in the house. Wow. My hat is off. Then there are moms like my mom, who can't see any of us right now and is probably worrying, as are we all, about everyone. Not for the faint of heart.

I decided to do an early Mother's Day card for everyone in all of these situations. This image is so sweet - it's a builder, so you can swap out kid images, and there are TONS of great mom sentiments. It also comes with dies. I love how they are facing away from us - it's like they are looking forward to sunny days ahead, and that could not be more perfect for this bizarre moment we find ourselves in.

I stamped her in Fadeout ink, and then masked her with masking paper, and then stamped the kids in Fadeout on watercolor paper. Then I watercolored them with Daniel Smith watercolor.

The sentiment is stamped in Nocturne.

Hope you are doing well and have everything you need!

I hope you head over and see the rest of this release, because it's amazing, and I'm astonished at how people are still creating beautiful things to bring us joy right now. It's hard not to feel sort of paralyzed, so I admire everyone who is moving forward in any way!

Loveyameanitbye.
