For Mother and Minnie!

Hello Everyone!

Today I am sharing a Heartfelt Creations Design Team card with a humorous touch to it.  I discovered this fun hat template at Paperscrapz. This template has been done up in many different ways- formal with feathers, with flowers, etc, but I have not seen it done as a straw hat.  As I was thinking this, I thought of Minnie Pearl's hat from the old T.V. show, Hee Haw!  How fun would this be, I thought?!


 I thought it would make a cute Mother's Day card.  Now I now Mother's Day is already long past, but my mother's birthday is right around Mother's Day and very often fall on the same day.  I remembered to send her her birthday card, but in trying to make the right card for that, I forgot about Mother's Day!  Needless to say, she pointed out that I was the "Card Lady" and she did not get a card from me!  This is the card she will get when she comes into town on June!


The brim of the hat is held closed with two small pieces of velcro.  Here is the inside~


For detailed instructions on how to make this project and for more inspiration from the amazing Design Team, please check out Heartfelt Creations' blog
