After shooting these images the other day, boo and I had a fun idea for a mothers day card. We were supposed to make it together after school yesterday, but a playdate happened instead. so I made one that I will use for my own mum, and popped her picture in to share here. My mums will be photo-less, but I still think it’s as cute. Boo will make her own after school today.
I think the pictures explain it all, but if you have any questions, I will happily answer them if you leave it in the comments section!
We did these as mothers day cards, but I think they would be equally cute as bon anniversaire or congratulations cards
supplies used
-white cardstock
-kids watercolours
-gel pens
-fabric
-laser printed photo
-confetti!!!


Hope all you wonderful mama’s have a great mothers day this weekend xo

Excuse the quality of the first two pics, I pulled them off facebook for a quick comparison.
The location had to change a bit because of light this year, and the angle isn’t exactly the same. but the story is there.

on weekdays, when I’m not shooting, or editing, or working, you can find me with these guys. and when they’re not on play dates, or gym, or dance class, you can usually find us out on an adventure of some kind or another. when the weather allows, that is.
yesterday we spent the afternoon at Wellington’s Central Park, I haven’t had the chance to experience the real thing, so I can’t really compare, but from what I know, our version is probably the micro mini model. that’s ok though, sometimes micro mini is all you need. we explored the grounds a bit, and the big one obliged me with some photos in a grassy patch, while the little one busied himself hunting for ‘forest treasures’. he found a few. I love that about kids, how nature’s treasures are worth holding on to like prized possessions. we were the first to arrive at the playground, and the last to leave, welcoming the incoming rainshower that cleared out the swings and left us feeling like we owned the place. then a quick pizza dinner at Heaven, which they assure me is delicious, even if they leave the crusts.

this book comes out in America.

It will be in book stores across the country, and available online links here
Exciting!
There is a bit of a wait for it to come out in NZ (May 28) and the rest of the world, but with the speed this year has been flying by, it will be here before we know it!
