Using Google Translate, I translated Mother & Father into Spanish, Basque, Azerbaijani, Albanian, Russian, Swedish, German, French, Dutch/Afrikaans, Irish, Kazahk, Latin, Polish, Swahili. I put these in a text box in MS Word, added Hearts & printed. I embossed my solid CS, edged my CS with corresponding ink & attached all to a card base. Hardest part was all of the words!

Wow! I am so impressed at the lengths you went to to incorporate so many languages. Especially with all the odd and unusual characters you had to find. I remember once typing a greeting in Greek for a similar challenge, and it took me forever getting each letter write - just for one single word!
And even before I read your write-up, I spotted the Irish in there. You really rocked this challenge with that great pair of cards.

Very creative cards and great take on the challenges! I love how related these primary words are in so many languages. You can see how fundamental 'father' and 'mother' are. Terrific cards!
