happy mom's day everyone!
(HMD)
so last week my friend asks me to make her mom, maxine, something to help celebrate the day.
"just whatever Lisa, you know what to do." she said.
huh?
so with that, i ran with it.
and made something.
something called a...
and...and...and...
ugh.
anyway, here it is, whatever it is.
see what i mean?
if only i had an abbreviation for it, it would eliminate a lot of guess work as to whatever the heck this is.
anyway, let's move on.
hooray after 4 years-yes, 4 years folks, i finally opened up my silhouette box.
don't ask...
i bought that "best mom" thing for 75 cents on their site and had to cut the connection by the last "m" on the word mom in order for it to lay as flat as it could on a curved surface.
of course it's not perfect but it works!
then i wandered over to target and saw the stickers.
and some really pretty oreos that i have no idea what they look like or taste like inside so i hope they are not moldy or groddy but too late now cuz they are still awful pretty so i'm buyin' them anyway kinda oreos.
and i got it together with some of my stash in my craft room.
uh oh.
lots of empty space here.
that mom mug i got and the little note pad and pens aren't gonna look right in there.
i'm off to trader joe's.
(can you tell i'm winging this whole thing as i go?)
then i took some vanilla almond bark and added the final details to the emoji faces.
i like them.
wanna see 'em up close?
last i filled the empty space in my oreo flower garden bicycle pail thingie doohicky gift basket but not really a basket thing.
hope maxine likes it!
she can tell her friends she got a thing from her daughter.
wonder what she'll call it?
hmmm.
perhaps she'll get a text message telling her what it is.
beeeeeep-
hey here's a text for you!
heehee
Sorry, BBFF, my Thesaurus is failing me. In more ways that one. No words to describe how brilliant this is. Also, it won't tell me what "emoji" is. Enlighten me, please, oh Mistress of All that is Crafty and Yummy! Dona
