Mother's Day

Since Mother's Day has come and gone, I thought I would show the cards that I made. I used Verve's  stamp set Love Deepens and Because of You for all the cards.

First up is a card I made for my wonderful momma. I went shabby chic on this one and used the current sketch from Mojo Monday. The dp is from DCWV (Mademosille), finally fot a chance to use tose fancy pearls I have been holding on to for months.

 This second one is for Mrs. Wheeler, who we call Nana. She has been such a blessing to me through the years, so I had to make her something special with her favorite color purple. I used the same dp from DCWV with lots of pearls.

 This one was for my good friend who I affeciatenly call Momma Pearl. This fabulous woman has been such an inspiration to me and is always there when I need her. I used dp from K & Company and a dimentional flower that coordinated with the dp.

 My sister friend Leonor got this lovely creation of blue and pink . When I think of her I always envision springtime and roses. The dp came from K & Company (Sweet Nectar).

For my God Mother's card I used the largest die from the Curved Rectangles nestabilities to make the card base and this yummy dp from DCWV(Lemon Flower). I added a rhinestone flourish and gren ribbon to complete the look.
So that's what I've been up to lately, see you next time!

    

One Person

I got a Shining Star from Stampin' Sisters in Christ for this Mother's Day card. I'm sending this one to my wonderful Mother-in-Law. I love black & white cards, but thought the pink would brighten things up .

I have more Mother's Day cards to show tomorrow, so until then have a good night.

VERVE'S BEACH PARTY CHALLENGES

What a busy week this has been. The schools are doing STAR testing, so seniors had the craziest school hours possible since they don't take them.TGIF!...it's time for Verve's Beach Party Release Party tonight. I can't believe I got all 5 challenges done on time. This graduation card is for the 5th sketch challenge. I used Pink Paislee dp and some Zva crystal flourishes. I love how this turned out.
This card is for sketch challenge#4. Finally got a chance to use this stamp that I've had for a few months.

Sketch challenge #3 is a Mother's Day card for a friend who has always been there for me, she is a great inspiration as well.

I used sketch #2 for a wedding card and is also for the Bible Verse Thursday Challenge where the theme is love. Now I have a wedding card handy for the next person getting married.

Challenge #1 is a color challenge using aqua, orange and green. Those are great colors for a summer birthday, so that's what I went with.

Just a few more hours until the Release Party so I gotta get rested and get the credit card ready. I'll let you know how the party went and if I won anything!

BLESSINGS & LOVE

I Won Some Blog Candy

I won my first Blog Candy from Martine at The Craft Table. It was this gorgeous Origins DP from Basic Grey. I got it just in time to make this Mother's Day card for the Mojo Monday Sketch #134. This is such a great sketch. Of course I pulled out my Verve stamps and Prima flowers. Can't go wrong with those two together. This is a short post with only one card because we have to get up early to go to a new student orientation at CSUEB for my daughter. I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. High school graduation is in 2 months. Love & Blessings
