MOTHERS DAY CARD

Making a Mother's Day Card Is hard when your Mother also makes cards herself, but I know now that the end result is just lovely and that she really liked it.  It's funny watching someone inspect your card trying to see how it's made, but i also do that myself with any cards that she makes for me.

The card I usually use is an 8" x 8" card made smaller to fit the square layered backgrounds from the SQUARE SPELLBINDERS DIEThe main topper is embossed, an oval aperture cut our and pink glitter card placed behind the aperture.  The Mothers Day label is again from SPELLBINDERS cut out after I had printed off the sentiment.  The Flowers are from the HEARTFELT CREATIONS STAMPS AND DIE SET.  I finished the card off with a beaded swirl from CREATIVE EXPRESSIONS, a beautiful button from off a market and satin ribbon on the corners also from the local market.  The card used for this is the CENTURA PEARL CARD. I always use this as it gives off such a beautiful shimmer and this one has the gold shimmer, which has actually been picked up by the camera.
