Happy Mother's Day!


This was a card I made a couple of to have on hand. My first time playing with this set by My Favorite Things. It's such a cute set! And so neat for Mother's Day!

I apologize for the dark photo, I was using my hubby's camera and the macro setting didn't work quite like the one on my camera does. I haven't gotten around to taking a better picture yet.

The card base is Elegant Eggplant, layered with Taken with Teal and patterned paper(from a Joann's stack). I colored the image in with my Copics. I am loving them!!! They are seriously one of my best crafting purchases ever! I added the purple primas to each side of the sentiment and inserted a yellow flower brad in the center of each. I think it pulls together the yellow in the flowers.

Hope you have a fantastic Mother's Day! This is my first year celebrating as a mother and I'm enjoying my day! Hubby is wonderful and brought me flowers on Thursday! And this morning he made breakfast...banana pancakes! YUM! I know he got me something, but I don't know what it is yet. He took Bella shopping earlier and hasn't given it to me yet :) I'll have to let you know what it is!
