Out of the two of us, my husband is the romantic one. When I was pregnant with our first daughter he gave me a corsage on Mother's Day that had a rose (for me) and a little bud (for the one to come). When I was pregnant with our second daughter the corsage had a large rose, a smaller one, and a bud. To my shock and horror, the little bud got knocked off while pinning it on!! Thankfully I am not superstitious, but I was hormonal so you can imagine the scene! Anyway, here's my go at a romantic card:
This card is inspired by the following challenges:
