A very Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Mother's throughout the land and abroad.
My card today is for the sketch challenge at Bell'n Whistles. I think I figured out today why I love Elizabeth Bell images so much and it's because her images remind me of my only daughter when she was small. Childhood memories of my daughter are so much better than my childhood memories.....LOL
I thought this stamp was from SCAD and just found out it's from B'nW......so guess I'm going to miss the challenge at SCAD this week............(sobs) And to think, I just got 3 news stamps from there this week and didn't use one of them. I'll play next week unless I have some free time tomorrow.
I'm also entering this card in the following challenges:
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Tip Top Tuesday - Open Challenge
Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog - Childhood Memories
The new image is called "A Blossom For You". Now she just can't get much cuter and sweeter than this for a Mother's Day card. Oh what wonderful memories I have! Blossom was colored with Copics with a few different colored Stickles added for some extra sparkle. The butterflies were cut out of vellum with the MS Butterfly punches, added Yellow Stickles to the edges and pearls for the center. The sentiment was computer generated, cut with a Spellbinder's die and edged in Star Dust Stickles. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the fluorish is from my dear friend Olga. Everything else is from my stash.
Thanks so very much for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon. If you have the time to leave me a comment I'll be sure to hop over to visit and see what's new with you.
Enjoy this wonderful Mother's Day and be sure to spend some time with family cause that's what life is all about.
