All of my cards are numbered so I can keep track of how many cards I've made along with the month and year I made them.
The layout designs that I use on my cards are provided from the design team at Freshly Made Sketches and Mojo Monday card challenges. The color schemes on some of my cards are compliments of the Color Throwdown card challenge. I owe my thanks to them for the use of these challenges.
Thank you for stopping by.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day
# 486-2016-02
Supplies Used : 
Cardstock : White blank card, Perfect Plum, patterned paper from Papercraft Inspirations
(Mum's the Word and Pretty in Pastels)
Sentiment : Papercraft Inspirations
Other : white lace ribbon

Here is my card for this weeks http://www.freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com card challenge.

Mother's Day is still 3 months away, however, I just couldn't resist using this gorgeous patterned paper that was a free download from Papercraft Inspirations website.

The names of the 2 patterned papers I used are called "Mum's the Word", which is the flowered paper at the top of my card. The other one is called "Pretty In Pastels", which is the patterned paper at the bottom of my card. Both patterned papers are attached to a Perfect Plum cardstock, giving my card a bordered look.

The sentiment heart was from the "Mum's the Word", along with the little purple strip that lays on top of the bottom of the heart. Using the white lace ribbon was my own idea. I thought it would look nicer than using another patterned paper behind the heart.

Thank you, Narelle, for giving us such an easy layout design for this weeks challenge! It worked perfect for the way I wanted to use these patterned papers.

Thanks for stopping by and for leaving your wonderful comments.. Please come back soon!
