Its Mothers Day here in the UK. I made a card for my mum using this photograph of her and me - on the beach at Blackpool circa 1965. My mum was extremely glamorous when she was younger (and still is actually even though she is in her 70's). She was a dead ringer for the young Elizabeth Taylor in her day. Happy Mothers Day Mum.

Lovely photo of you and your mum, you are lucky to still have her with you.
Fantastic photograph of you both - love her specs!
Happy Mothers Day,

A lovely tribute to your mum. She was a stunner especially in those sunglasses.
wonderful photo - they were a glamerous lot back then. My mum is away so I've sent a text to the person she's staying with to show her ... odd way for me to tell her Happy Mothering Sunday !
Super, super photo....
You are right, VERY glamorous.
A beautiful photo Diane x

Happy Mothers Day! What a special card. Hope you had a lovely day too. xxx
Oh Diane, I have a photo so very similar to yours, with me and my daughter, taken about 4 years later, and on the beach at Herne Bay in Kent.
I wasn't as good-looking as your mother, but the hair is similar, and the sun glasses!
Makes me feel too old!
Lovely idea for a card, though.
What a gorgeous picture...and a beautiful mum!
