Mother's Day Card

Good Evening everyone, don't know what has been up with Blogger this afternoon but I've been trying for the last 2 hours to upload this card.  I could get the writing to post but it wouldn't let me add the picture.  Hopefully it is sorted now, finger's crossed.

My card today is for my mum tomorrow.  I've bought us tickets to see Calendar Girls at the Opera House on Tuesday night, just the two of us.  Can't wait.
