There are so many big-kid, independent stuff I have to say no to these days. Can I walk to my friend's house by myself? No. Can I have cookies for breakfast? Nope. Can I have a ladder to climb on the roof? Absolutely not. So when she asked if she could play with our glue gun, it was so nice to be able to say Yes. That is how these flower cards came about!

They're pretty by themselves, but you can also use a metallic marker or sharpie to write on a greeting. Perfect for quick correspondences, spring wishes, or Mother's Day love. You might want to keep your glass of water far away from the finished product though (ahem)- one of these days I'm bound to learn!
