Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all my Mama blogging friends!  Children are a blessing and I have been blessed 4 times and 3 more times as a Grandma.  My husband is so sweet and makes Mother's Day so special for me even though we don't have any children together.  Life is great when you marry your best friend.
 Enjoy your day!


Just a simple, little Mother's Day card using my all time favorite D2D image, the flowers from the "Willow Whimsy" set.  I have used this image from everything from a Get Well card to a Mother's Day card.  I love the Spring/Summer color combo of orange, yellow, green and aqua blue.  I added a polka dot ribbon with an orange felt flower behind the button/tag.  White pearl were added to the center of each of the flowers.  Bright and cheery, just like every Mother's Day should be.

Recipe:
Stamps - Willow Whimsy (D2D), sentiment (computer generated)
Paper - Citrus Stack (DCWV), orange, white cardstock
Coloring - Copics
Misc - Circle dies (Spellbinders), Apron Lace punch (Fiskars), pearls, ribbon, button, felt flower (SU!)

Challenges:  

 Sunshine and Smiles to You!
