Flower's for Mom

Good morning!  It's challenge time again at Dream Valley Challenges!  This fortnight's challenge is to make a Mother's Day card.  Since it is Mother's Day in the UK (where our challenge is based) on the 30th of this month we here in the US are getting a jump start!  So happy to have cards made ahead of time! :)

Our sponsor for our Mother's Day Challenge is:  Kenny K!  The winner gets three images of their choice!  Awesome!

Here is my card:

I printed the sentiment from the computer and then sponged the kraft paper with brown inks.  The flower pot and flowers are cut using the Cricut cartridge On the Farm.  Such a quick and easy card that I made two!

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:

Emergency Crafters - flowers

Imagination Crafts - In Bloom

Natalie and Amy - Flowers

Stempelgarten - One Layer Card

Have a great week!

Mother's Day in the UK

Good morning!  I hope everyone is having a great weekend!  I know I am!  The temperature was in the 50's yesterday and the whole family went out ice fishing.  Unfortunately, I ended up with a sunburn, but we caught some fish so everyone was happy!

Here's a picture of my 10 year-old...the boy that is, not the fish! LOL

And my 7 year-old:

Okay, on to crafting!  The card I have for you today is a Mother's Day card.  Mother's Day isn't until May in the States, but in the UK it is this month, hence the challenge at Dream Valley this time is Mother's Day!

This card idea actually came about when I was cutting out flowers for another card.  I love that one project can come from another.

I hope you can join us at Dream Valley and play along in our Mother's Day challenge.  One lucky player will win a prize from FRECKLED FAWN!  Be sure to check them out HERE!

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:
Joanna Sheen - Mum's the word
Crazy 4 Challenges - use the negative of your die cut
Totally Gorjuss - Mum

Have a great week!  I hope to be back later in the week to show you some scenic stamping I have been doing!
