Happy Mother's Day

 I made the following card for an online Mother's Day swap and used the sketch- PCC126- above from Paper Craft Crew. The challenge ends Tuesday, March 28, 2017 at 1 EST.
The card base is Recollections 4 x 5.5" Ivory card set. The orange floral PP strip is from Six by Six by My Mind's Eye Happier Designer Cardstock Paper Pad. The doily is from a Recollections set. The word "happy" is actually from The Stamps of Life cake2stamp set or a birthday set. The paper didn't have the word "happy" on it so I improvised. It's from a Me and My Big Ideas Spring Set from Michaels. I used Ranger Archival Jet Black Ink to stamp happy and the stamped image. The stamped image is from Unity Stamp Company Warm Inside set. I used Crayola Colored Pencils and American Crafts Colorcopia Colored Pencils to color in the stamp. The flower is from Michaels Paper Spring Eyelet Delight Flowers. It had a pearl in the middle, but when I placed the flower through my Xyron 1.50 Create A Sticker Maker, the pearl got stuck and came off. Luckily, I own a Making Memories II set that has a pair of tweezers in it and I was able to retrieve the pearl! I added the green bling from my stash. The twine is Watermelon Sorbet from Timeless Twine. TFL. I made 2 other Mother's Day cards for the same swap and will posting about them soon.
