Happy Mother's Day


Happy Mother's Day to all of the Moms out there today! I hope you've having a special day surrounded by your loved ones!

I made this mother's day card for a friend, and I'm entering it into the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers challenge #7 - "Y is for your Mama!" I used some beautiful embossed dsp from the Violet Crush paper pad, along with some eggplant cardstock, ribbon, and a few paper flowers. The 2 largest flowers were done with a SU! punch and die, while the sentiment panel was done with a SP die too. I added a gemstone brad to the center, and some plum colored pearls to the sentiment

Wishing you all a fabulous Sunday, and thanks so much for stopping by!
