Reaching into my stash of paper goodies that I have been hoarding, I began with a premade card from DCWV. The patterned papers are from Teresa Collins. I did a border of Liquid Pearls in Buttercup to highlight the paper a bit. The flowers are from Recollections and were highlighted with Stickles. The sentiment was stamped onto a tiny tag and attached to the twine. Rhinestones are also from Recollections. See that pretty butterfly? A friend sent me a letter on some stationery that had these pretty butterflies. I simply fussy cut one and attached it with foam squares for dimension.
These usually aren't colors I go for but I think they made a nice, colorful card. I thought the stamped sentiment worked well for Mother's Day, too.
On that note, I'm sharing a photo taken today of me, my Mom and my son. He surprised us both with flowers and candles. To those celebrating Mother's Day today, I hope you have an enjoyable, relaxing one. Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and leaving your sweet comments. xoxo

ReplyDeleteAwww, I love your family photo, Patty, and LOVE your card! I know those aren't your usual colors, but I am in love with that combo. Orange has always been one of my favorites... :) I adore the frame of dots you made with the liquid pearls and love the tiny tag tucked into the flowers. And what a brilliant way to use that recycled butterfly! I love how just a portion of it peeks out!
