A Mother's Day Wish and A Springtime Giveaway

Happy Mother's Day!

to all the sweet women who

love and nurture and offer tenderness

♥

And to celebrate YOU... I'm having a 

Springtime Giveaway!

A tulip with babies!

Three little babies to remind me of my own.

My first giveaway!

 

I've collected a few goodies for you, my sweet friends.

You make me smile, 

think about life, look for beauty, organize my kitchen,

bake-frost and sprinkle JOY.

You inspire love, kindness and prayer.

I've been planning this giveaway ever since I saw these sweet birdie cards

from Current Catalog.

The Faith and Friendship card collection by Susan Winget really caught my eye.
I love the designs and the quotes inside!

I bought one set for myself and one for you.

This sentiment inside one of the cards is perfect for a friend.

"Thoughts of you always make me smile."

I've also been sewing fun trim on flour sack towels.
{I love flour sack towels}
You definitely have to have one of these; they are the best for drying glasses!

Then, I bought two sets of these cute cards and cupcake liners

one for my sister, Doreen ~ and one for YOU! 

They reminded me of Doreen's new blog...

She's a new blogger and has created such a lovely place to visit online.

Oh, do stop by there and say hello!

 ~ She is a sweetheart ~

...Here's another sentiment from the Faith and Friendship card set ...

 "Everything's sweeter when shared with a friend."

When I saw the quote on these treat boxes,

I knew that I had to include a couple of them.
They are great for bringing cookies or a few cupcakes to a friend.

That's it!

The giveaway winner will be chosen May 14.
