Ever heard that phrase “I am so far behind I'm ahead of myself”? Or did I just make that up? Well, either way, I got so busy working on my art deadlines for May, I made an extra one! Sadly, this one will have to go into the July release (I will remind you) but I still wanted to share.
This reminds me of the time in high school when, at a swim meet, I was swimming the 500 freestyle for the first time (and last, I was an IMer, and it was best I stuck with that) and I swam four extra laps. FOUR EXTRA LAPS!!! During a SWIM MEET!! I had already done 20 laps and was in the zone (or delirious)….people were yelling for me to stop, all the other swimmers were finished … my Mom was cringing in the stands…it was pretty bad.
The beauty of this over shot is that I am not embarrassed or exhausted! I am just, ahead of myself… which I have to admit, is a new feeling.
This one goes out to good moms everywhere (especially mine!) and in particular to my good friend Ali and her new little boy Oscar. Welcome to a whole new 'everything in the world.' Love you guys!
Would love to know what you think of the new releases!

As the mama of former swimmers, I had to smile at your story. Oh, my…I can imagine your mom’s shock watching you become the Energizer Bunny of the Pool!
And yes…these new releases? Give me reason to smile…and wanna spend money. (I think your previous post’s preview might be one of my all-time CGD favorites).

Loving the new releases! Wish this would would be available by mother’s day 🙂
Love this! Considering even though I’m almost 49 my mom made me feel like shit this morning resulting with me hanging up on her 85 year old ass………
A favorite already! I love this one!
Oh yes-I rmr that moment!! 🙂 I love that quote!
Can’t wait to purchase this for my mom for Mother’s Day! So wonderful 🙂
I soooo love this card! It’s perfect, perfect, perfect! The pearls are a touch of genius! (I need twelve of these right NOW!)
My 11-month-old daughter has quite the collection of giraffe stuffed animals. We named her favorite one Jeff. This card made my day because it captures how much I love my daughter, being a mother, as well as my newfound affection for giraffes! (Or “Jeffs” as we call them around here!)
love it!
Love it! Going to buy it for my sister-in-law who is due ANY day now!!! 🙂
I love this design, like so many of your others. But I just wondered…is there a card for Dads out there in the future? I know mine would love a Curly Girl card just as much as my Mom.
Ok…. This new design might have made me tear up just a little bit. It is absolutely beautiful! 🙂
Love the sentiment, LOVE the pearls and the eyelashes!!
I cannot wait to give this to my mom! Absolutely right on 🙂
