She answers to many names…Martha, Grandma Judy called her “Mah-tha”, she wanted to be called “Marty” when she was a kid (all of HER kids thought this was hilarious), Marth, Mom, Mama, Granny-mom, Granny, sugar/honey/baby…but the classic nickname, and my all time favorite, was “Maniac Martha”. My brother and his friends coined this phrase when they were in high school. There are five kids in my family, three girls and two boys. My brother Jed is technically the middle child, though my sister Steph is the one that holds that title. After two teen-aged girls, I don’t blame my mom for being a little CrAzY with the high school boys! Mom deserves a medal for putting up with all the high school and college shenanigans we dished out!
I made this card to pay homage my “wild and crazy” mama!


I love the dimension the wobble mechanism adds!







Your card is so colorful and creative! Thank you for sharing it with us at PDE Linky Party!

Awww thank you! You are observant! I’ve always had an “about me”/ Welcome page, but I updated recently and added the photo to the sidebar. I had too many different pictures going on with my avatars, the many faces of Wendy😜, so I picked one and went with it.
