Sealed with a Kiss
Sending your mom a card on Mother’s Day is a tradition with heart. Whether you see your mom weekly or yearly, a card with a note telling her what she means to you means the world to her. Taking the time to create a card just for her adds to the written sentiments in the card. It wordlessly shares your love and appreciation of her, while letting her know she is worth more than anything that can be bought in a store. Take some inspiration from our SWAK gallery and create something for your mom, your favourite mom friends, and for women who uplift and inspire you!
