Mother's Day inspiration PLUS announcement

How did Mother's Day just pop right up there on the calendar?

I'm not feeling entirely brilliant at this moment.  In the mean time, how about a little Mother's Day inspiration from last year?!  These projects from Mother's Day 2010 both feature free printables, so creating something in a snap is just a little bit more do-able.

 

Although this picture shows my personalized Mother word art, you can download a more general version for the Mom's in your life!  Frame it, and you have an easy gift!

 

Looking for something for your kids to make for Grandma?? Last year, Little Man and his cousin made ladybug garden rocks for Grandma, and she LOVED them! There is a sweet printable poem that goes along with the project, too.

Do you have a favorite Mother's Day project idea?

Leave me a link... I'm on the prowl for great ideas!

 Are you dying with anticipation for my announcement??

If only you knew how much I love love love American Idol, then maybe you could understand my excitement:  I am going to be a judge on the American Crafter competition going on at Naptime Crafters!

 

I've never been a judge before, but for sure I'll be a softie.  I would love to see my readers participate!  Go link up your very best projects!  I hope to see you there!
