Hey, cool creative craftsmanship on your "not" sign! Sounds like you share a great relationship with Gina and you are wise to have friends of all ages. Fun colors and mix of papers on this LO, Jaime.

Not! Mom

This is my "not mom"! She is a co-worker I used to have and grew to love! We'd tease each other that she was old enough to be my mom. Then she started leaving me notes, signing them "Mom" so I started calling her mom. One day after I'd quit, I came back so we could go out to lunch. As we were ordering lunch I called her my mom, but then I looked at the cashier and said "She's not really my mom" (don't know why!) so now she calls herself my "not Mom" thus the title!

I made the not symbol by painting a chipboard circle red. Then I cut a white circle out (a little smaller than the chipboard circle) and cut it in half. I adhered it to the back and voila! I worked out how to do it as I talked to my sister on the phone.
