Can you believe Mother's Day is almost here?  My mom is so hard to shop for, it's unbelievable.   She doesn't wear jewelry, she doesn't like receiving flowers, clothing is a definite no, and all of those gift certificates for back massages sit in her desk drawer for years!

Last year I made her dinner.  That was great because she came to visit me at school and I got to make her a special meal.  Now that we're living together full time, cooking for her isn't exactly "special".  I do it every other night!

A YourCover custom magazine cover is the greatest idea since sliced bread!  It was really fun and easy to make.  My brother also got a chance to get in on the gift by logging into my account.  Usually it's hard to coordinate gift ideas because we are so far away from each other, but YourCover.com makes it easy for us to work on a magazine cover together.

Unique gifts for mom are hard to come by, especially when your mom is as difficult to shop for as mine, so making her a personalized magazine cover with my brother has saved me a lot of time and money.  The best thing about this gift? It comes from the heart!  Moms love that...

Make this Mother's Day one she won't forget by making her a unique personalized gift she can keep forever.

Golfing Magazine Cover

All the men in my life LOVE to golf.  My dad, brothers and fiance all love to get out on the course and hit some birdies [not real one's of course!].  I'm a beginner.  Just getting my feet wet.  I played my first 9 hole course last summer and got my first golf bag for Christmas.  I definitely like the sport, it just takes A LOT of patience, which sometimes I don't have.   I want to be able to improve my game so I can keep up with the guys!  It would be nice to spend the day out playing a game of golf with my dad or my brothers, oh yeah, and my fiance too of course! ;0)

For my brother's birthday last year I made him a YourCover personalized magazine cover to showcase his golfing talent.  HE LOVED IT!!! 
I reviewed the magazine cover templates and picked the Over Par template, obviously my younger brother is not "over par" in his age, so I changed the title to Golfer'sMonthly.  I love how YourCover is completely customizable!  

It is hanging in his room as we speak and his friends ask him all the time, "How did you get on a magazine cover?!?!"  He keeps his little secret to himself, maybe only telling a few. 

Are you a part of a golfing family?  Make your personalized golf cover now!

In my circle of friends and family, this is a BIG year for pregnancy.  I know three people who are pregnant and oddly enough are due within 3 months of each other.  One in June, another in July and lastly in August.  With 3 Baby Showers I will have to attend this year, I definitely have to be creative with gifts.  Especially since we are all mostly related!!  Baby-BabyShower-Pregnant Personalized Magazine Cover

I know YourCover personalized magazine covers will help me out in this area!  The first shower I will be attending is for my friend Karen who is due in June; she likes to stay fit and active ALL the time.  So, I decided to make a fake magazine cover for her using the BABY template and then designed it to resemble "FitPregnancy" magazine.  I got a hold of her husband who had taken this picture of her [it's awesome, isn't it!?!?], I thought it was the perfect picture to use for a magazine cover gift!

Then, I personalized all the headlines about her, her husband and family, and their soon to be new addition.  I am SOOOO EXCITED to give it to her!!!!!  She will flip!  I am even thinking about ordering the poster too and having people sign it at the bridal shower!

This unique personalized gift idea will be one that will last forever and she'll truly appreciate.  Upload that awesome photo for that unique photo gift to make that someone special happier than ever!

People get flowers on birthdays, anniversaries, as "get well" gifts, and almost any occasion you can think of.  You don't want to be like everyone else!

For those who like to go against the grain, YourCover has awesome unique photo gift ideas for you! Because let's face it, flowers are pretty and smell good, but they die and then you have to throw them away, but a YourCover photo magazine cover lasts forever and is in most cases, cheaper than a dozen roses.  That makes the custom magazine cover way more valuable than boring flowers.   

With a recovering economy, make every dollar count!  Unique gifts ideas like a YourCover photo magazine cover is definitely more bang for your buck! These days, who can't afford to be more practical anyway?  Flowers are so temporary and just seem to be wasteful.  Although receiving flowers can be sweet, were they picked up at the gas station after work?  Sometimes there's just not much thought in picking up a bouquet of flowers.  

It means a lot more to someone when you spend a little time putting thought into a gift, instead of just picking up the same old flowers you get every year.  A YourCover magazine cover is so easy to make, and our default headlines are great for everyone.  Make every moment count for something and cherish your favorite times forever.  Making a custom magazine cover at YourCover not only gives you an opportunity to be cute and loving, but the person you make it for can look back on it years from now and love it just the same as the day they received it, maybe even more!  Can you say that about flowers?  Be creative! Be unique! Be romantic! Be everything they want you to be and start making a cover today!
