Mother's Day Card

I made a card for my mother and sister for Mother's day.  I got my inspiration from http://joy-purttypaperz.blogspot.com/  Her blog has some wonderful cards on it.  If you get a chance check her blog out it will be worth it.  I used Country Life cart to make the pitcher of flowers.  Hope you like it.

Repeat from yesterday

I made another April Showers card.  I cut the girl the same size and used the same size card as yesterday.  I had to make one for my mom.  My mom lives close to me but I have a sister and a friend who live a couple hours away.  I send a lot of the cards I make to them.  My friend is also a card maker and sends me a card from time to time also.  It is nice to get that hand made card in the mail.  I always put them on my cupboard and display it.  Thanks for looking.

April Showers Bring May Flowers!

I was inspired to do this card due to the down pour of rain we were getting.  I keep telling myself that we need this rain for the May flowers.  I know I am ready for some sunshine.  It has been raining on and off for so long now I quit keeping track.  I made the girl from Kate's ABCs cart.  I cut her at 4 inches and used a A4 size card.  I had some cute umbrella patterned paper and had to find a way to include it in the card.  Hope you like it!

Family Layout

Well layouts are not my strong point so I spent about a week putting this layout together.  The ribbon flower in the upper right hand corner is ribbon I sewed and pulled together to gather and added some pearls in the middle.  That ribbon matched that paper perfect.  Some of the flowers down in the lower left hand corner I made and some were bought.  My son said it was flower over kill but he just doesn't get it.  When you get a chance to use some of those flower you made you go for it.....LOL.  Thanks for looking!
