Wonderful Mother


I did a Mother's Day card today. But, I'm not really happy with it. You know how you have one of those days, when you keep switching everything around to make it work, but it never really does. That has been today. Anyway, this is a cute little image from The Paper Shelter. I colored her with Copic Sketch markers. The cardstock is Stampin Up and DP is Basic Grey's Kioshi. The sentiment is Stampin Up also. The buttons are from Oriental Trading and the pearls are Recollections from Michaels. The flowers I made with my Cricut and I used the cartridge Mother's Day Bouquet. They are made from the cardstock and DP that I used on the card. The brads in the center of the flowers are just some that I had in my stash.

I am entering this card in these challenges:
