If Moms were flowers, I'd pick YOU!


Mornin' hens! Hmmmm, I bet you'll never guess who this card is for? Tee-hee! Yep, it's my Mom's Mother's Day card. I hope she likes it. She's so GOOD with plants and flowers it's not funny. I can kill a CACTUS, but she can grow ANYTHING! I certainly don't take after her in that arena! Hmmph!

As soon as I saw this new image from Stamping Bella called, "Sorry Shanna" I knew I wanted to use it for her Mother's Day card. It fits her perfectly and ME too! Yep, that looks like me as a kid, goofy tights and shoes! Always wearin' my big sister's "hand me downs"! Tee-hee! And thinkin' back, I wouldn't trade my childhood for ANYTHING!

Ok, so I started by stamping the image onto some of Bella's Bestest Paper and colored the image with my Copics. I stitched it to some SU Really Rust and then onto some SU Sahara Sand. I added the three small brads to the bottom left and then finished by adding this taffeta ribbon tied in a cute bubbly bow. That's it, not a complicated card but none the less CUTE, right? LOL! Our next Bellarific Friday challenge theme is "FLOWERS". Hmmmmm, maybe I can post this again? Bwah-ha-ha-ha!! Just kidding!! Be sure to check out the rest of the Bella Babes' creations over at Bloggabella, as well as those SUPER SISTAHS from the SISTAHOOD! Have a FABBY Friday! {{{hen hugs}}}

Supplies:
Rubber Stamps - Stamping Bella; DP - Sassafrass Lass; CS - Bella's Bestest Paper, SU Sahara Sand & Really Rust; Brads - Recollections (Michaels); Ribbon - Michaels; Copics
