For Someone Special



Thanks everyone for all the really nice comments that you have been leaving me here on my blog. You guys are really nice and I greatly appreciate it.

Today I did a Mother's Day card using another cute image from Sassy Cheryl's. She is so cute. She is colored with Copic Sketch markers. The cardstock is all from my scrap stash. I have no DP, but I made my own. I stamped the pink cardstock with a Stampin Up stamp from the Easter Blossoms stamp set. And it was stamped with a Stampin Up ink color called Pretty In Pink. I used a couple of Spellbinder die cuts and four different punches. All punches were from Stampin Up except the lattice punch which is EK Success. The crocheted flower is from Recollections. The button is Basic Grey and it is tied with pink and white bakers twine. I used the Cuddlebug Paisley embossing folder on the corner. And the pearls are by Martha Stewart Crafts.

I will be entering this card in these challenges:
