One of my favorite songs that I remember my mother singing is “I Often Go Walking”. A beautiful and touching song that closes with the line: ”Dear Mother all flowers remind me of you”. My mother is a wonderful gardener and her home is always adorned with lovely flowers and roses. I have so many memories of her daffodils and tulips in the spring, roses in the summer, and mums in the fall. She taught me to love and appreciate nature and the the fragrant gift of flowers.
I found these cheerful pink zinnias for her Mother’s Day gift and had to create a card to go with them!
I chose the timeless and vintage Stella and Rose “Hazel” collection. I hand stitched the flowers from MME ribbons and accented them with a Lost and Found button and Lush brads.
Needless to say, we both cried as she read her card today – such a special moment with my dearest friend!
