...we were little girls with awesome moms.
I'm happy to say, I still have an awesome mom. Her name is Pat, and she's as lovely today as she was when this photo was taken 45 years ago. I, however, am far less blonde, and I don't have a cool red velvet dress anymore, either.
With Mothers Day coming up, our Drunken Stampers challenge this week is extra appropriate: create a card with a picture of yourself when you were a wee one!
Dig those cat-eye glasses!
I bet your mom is pretty cool, too! C'mon, you have GOT to play along with this challenge. We want to see your baby pictures! Link up your tribute to mom at the Drunken Stampers blog, and join us for what's sure to be the sweetest, most heart-warming challenge yet! Happy Mothers Day, all!
Hugs,
Linda
Le Menu:
- Papers from Basic Grey and Bazzill
- Silhouette die cut frame blinged with Worn Lipstick and Black Soot Distress Stickles
- Flowers are Prima Alchemy, decorated with Worn Lipstick Distress Stickles and attached with 7 Gypsies brads.
P.S. To fully illustrate just how geeky I really am, I will admit that I just spent half an hour doing internet research on whether there should be an apostrophe in "Mothers Day," and if so, should it go before or after the "s" at the end. Turns out, nobody knows for sure!

Great job Linda, you were adorable! Love those cool glasses too!
Linda, this is just lovely! Will you be gifting this to your mom for Mother's Day? It is such a treasure. I'm sure she will love it - I love the sentiment and the personalization of the piece. Happy May Day, dear friend! :) Theresa
Oh wow, how glam was your Mum!!! Lovely work as always :)
Linda, What a special tribute to your mom and I must say you were and still are adorable!
P.S. Don't you wish you had those glasses, how much fun they would be to alter!
How wonderful. Your Mom is beautiful! I love those glasses. Your tribute to your Mom is divine. Have a terrific day.
What a beautiful Mom and cute little girl! I have a great mom as well but no old pictures of me. I want to get my mother's photo albums and scan them and give a copy to my siblings.
Let's try to figure out a time to get together in the next week or two!
By the way, im my unprofessional opinion, it should be Mothers' Day!
Blessings,
Christine
Hi Dear daughter Linda, Your Mom and I are very proud to call you ours. Your are the best. Dad
P S Your Mom was excited with your Mothers day post.
OMG, your DAD made a comment! How cool is that! My Mom just reads my blog to see what kind of language I'm using....Great card and tribute to your Mom, that pic is a real gem to have. Hmmm, baby pics, I think I was kinda cute once....not sure....
Hi Dad! :-)
Thanks, everyone! I really appreciate all the sweet comments. I have great parents. ♥
I am sorry for being late with my comments here - but I spent my weekend with my parents ;o)
Great card Linda. This really shows your love for what sounds like a great mom! Very cool flowers. Your dress there sure must have caused a lot of envy with your friends.
Even though we celebrated Mothers day in March here in Norway, I think I must try to play with this challenge.
Hugs

I'm lucky to know (and love) both Linda & her Mom!!! Two of the most fantastic women I've met!
