White plus a pop

It's been another lovely day today, hope it lasts all week.
Sharing another of my Mother's Day cards.


Decoupage flowers are from a C&C kit which a friend gave me two years ago - it's been sitting made up for several months and just needed a card! I've used my new Anja border dies from Marianne Design for the first time to frame the decoupage - I used foam pads under the cut edge to lift the design. Ribbon, button and pearls are from my stash. Sentiment is computer generated and cut with a Spellbinders label die. All card came from my bit box.

Celebrate the Occasion - welcome spring
Shopping our Stash - buttons and bows
Tuesday Throwdown - spring cleaning
