Mother's Day Cards

















Happy Saturday evening, it has been a cold, dreary rainy day here.  A great day for staying in and creating, wouldn't you say?  I had a few requests for Mother's Day cards so I did a little creating in that direction.  The first card is for Unscripted Sketches #52 and for today's IC229, I chose the earrings here.  I was drawn to the colors and the book page that they are hanging on.  I bought some old Guideposts at the Goodwill and have been using them for book pages.  They are daily devotionals so they have scripture and great inspiration.  Enjoy!

Stamps:  Verve Because Of You
Paper:  SU Black, Soft Sky, Cosmo Cricket Designer Paper, and Book Page
Ink:  SU Riding Hood Red
Accessories:  Ribbon, Janome, Quickuts Nesting labels, Distressing Tool, Sponging, and Glue Dots




















This is for Mercy's Sketch Challenge, MTSC69.  I used the designer papers from October Afternoon, Thrift Store pack and I made a fabric flower.  I did a little stitching, sponging and added a button tied bow.  I hope you have a wonderful rest of the weekend!  Enjoy.

  4. Your paper flowers are the neatest thing EVER! WOW! I love both of your cards. Thank you for the nice comments on my blog.

    The music on your blog is very nice! Thank you for having it on. I am just getting into Christian music and I really enjoy it! I just bought a sampler and a Francesca Batistelli (I probably spelled that horribly). I have some mixed Christian too, but it is nice to find bands that are GOOD by hearing them here and there. HAve a blessed rest of your weekend!
