This Mother's Day, HBO created a series of limited-edition Game of Thrones cards for Mother's Day, alongside a range of other fun character cards. The front of the cards are styled like royal portraits, each of which is framed and illustrates one of the iconic leaders who is still vying for the coveted Iron Throne. While one of the painterly Game of Thrones cards depicts Daenerys Targaryen, the Mother of Dragons, the other shares an image of Cersei Lannister—who is one of the most despised characters in the show yet her love for her children is recognized as one of her redeeming qualities.
Inside the cards, there are funny messages that are sure to bring a smile to the faces of Game of Thrones fans and their mothers.
