Word Art

I am not a fan of quotes and sentiments, there are a handful of humorous and irreverent ones I like, but I am not big on using them in my scrap book albums.

I was cruising the web a few weeks ago, avoiding the laundry and the ironing as usual, when I came across a quote about motherhood that I really liked.

After a while, I decided to play around with it and turn it into a word art design, the intention was to print it out and frame it for my sister, I know that it will strike a chord with her too, as I am sure it does with lots and lots of you out there.

Needless to say I haven’t printed it out or got it framed yet, but I thought I would share it here, if the interest is there then I will make it available in a printable PDF format. Please leave a comment

I thought it might also look good printed out small onto a tag or journaling card, I think I may add this to my PL collection.

**edited to add – freebie PDF can be found here

    I love quotes and sayings and this one is so true…and even if it’s not all true it feels true! I’d love to have this as a PDF to print and use. I’m thinking of tucking it into baby shower gifts somehow as a little extra. Thanks for sharing!

  3. That is lovely. Thank you for sharing.

    I’d love to print this out & hang in my sewing room to remind that being mum is all about learning to accept my mistakes :)

    That quote is so true in so many ways. I had 4 kids and every one of them is so different. How does a Mother know what the right thing is to do in all situations? I was raising my first 3 chilren in the 60′s and the last one in the 70′s. Everything has changed so much. How does a Mother prepare herself for the way people think and know what’s right. I think this is a great sentiment.

  10. Would love to have this printed and framed!

  11. It’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Would you mind telling us which software you used to create it? My wordart in MSWord seems much less cool than what you used!

    • Thanks Bridget – I actually just use the equivalent to MSword but on my MAC – its called PAGES, I have to say I find it a little more flexible than MSword, but before I moved to the “dark side” I did all my word art projects using MSword, I just used text boxes with differing fonts and sizes, I found wordart itself to be too restrictive.
