Love you Mom

I realized this week - whoa...it's Mother's Day on Sunday and you have no card for your mom!  So I put something together and thought I'd show you today.  A simple but spring-filled design for my very special Mom.  


I combined two Flourishes sets - Spring Blossoms and Motherly Love to make framing elements for the  Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Victorian Oval.  It forms this pretty vignette for her. Coloring is done with Copics, and I paired the card with Color Made Easy Sunflower and Emerald Coast Cardstock and a new line to Flourishes - Carta Bella So Noted designer paper (so pretty!), I'm so glad we're carrying them!  


Finishing details are some paper flowers, crystal trinket pins, soft yellow seambinding and some lovely white crochet lace ribbon.  

Hope you'll enjoy this weekend with someone you love!  See you soon!
