Mother’s Day around the corner, something to make them smile

May 10, 2009 is this years day to celebrate Mom’s. No matter if her children have 2 or 4 legs (not to say that us humans have more than 2 legs, but my children are 2 Jack Russell’s and they should join in the celebration). I blogged about my Memory Boxes in December and the response was over whelming.
One of my favorite boxes I have done has been for Margaret Roach of her famous Frogboys.
They are a blast to make and assuring who ever opens the box with their Memory Box inside will have a big smile.
Let these inspire you. They have me every time I make one. The Memory Box pictured of the 2 big black dogs, Raggs a Newfoundland and Devon a Newf/Lab mix are no longer with me, they are waiting with some others at Rainbows Bridge.
Enjoy,
Susan
