Mother’s Day Card for the Dads – Free Download

Maybe I stayed up past — way past — my usual bedtime of midnight to hand-letter and design this. But my Staedtler illustration pens and a 9×13 pan of brownies kept me fine company while Ryan snored away on the couch.

So do you have a honey that can use a little direction in honoring you this mother’s day? Download this free greeting card, then check off your wants needs. Because our significant others can’t read our minds. What? You didn’t know? That’s okay. I forget all the time.

This design is for personal use only, thanks!

Now, is Red Bull supposed to make you feel a little dizzy? I took only a few sips.

    sorry, i don’t know about the red bull thing.
    but i just wanted to say this is such a cute idea, and i think it’s hilarious that there is a sex/ no sex option.

    Jenn, you’re genius. GENIUS. Seriously, you’re my idol.

    Did you learn how to write like that with books? Classes?

    this makes me wish I was a mother in order to have an excuse to use this. My birthday does fall on Mother’s day this year though!

    Funny stuff and just “subtle” enough for hubby to get my drift.
