April showers will surely bring us some May flowers and with those flowers comes a very special opportunity to honour and celebrate all the mommas out there – Mother’s Day! This year that day of days falls on Sunday, May 13th, which means you have less than a month to find the perfect way to say thank you to the woman who either gave you life or made the life you live possible.
You could hope to win a fabulous prize to share with mom, like the one to be won in this huge cash giveaway or you could hit up the shopping mall for some inspiration! If you have young children, you could set them the task of creating a sweet craft for their mom, nana, grandma, aunt etc or you could try your own hand at making a necklace out of macaroni. Of course, I jest. 🙂 If my son gives me a homemade necklace I would cherish it; hubby could maybe try another route. 😉
Whatever you decide to do or give for Mother’s Day, it is always nice to have something beautiful to wrap it in and other lovely items to add to the decor. You can find all of that and more, including some gorgeous and sweet cards at Carlton Cards. They have something to suit every occasion and Mother’s Day is no exception.
The Giveaway
To help you #CelebrateMom, a lucky MapleMouseMama reader will win a Carlton Cards Prize Pack! To be eligible to win please complete the Rafflecopter below with your qualifying answers. This giveaway is open to Canadian residents over the age of 18. Please read our giveaway rules before entering. This giveaway will end on May 9th, 2018 at 11:59pm. Good luck!!
