S & S Sketch Challenge #211

Here I am with my card for the Stars & Stamps Sketch Challenge.  I just need a few more cards to go in my next box so I decided to make a couple of Mother's Day Cards.  I made one of them using today's sketch.

My strip is bit wider then was called for on the sketch but I really wanted to use this poem so I made adjustments, which I do on a regular basis.  The paper is from my stash (I'm getting good at using that up) and the poem and sentiment are by Hero Arts.  The pink card stock is Parchment Pink.  I've had that for years also.  The ribbon is by SU! and the embossing folder is by Cuttlebug.  I hope you are all having a nice relaxing Sunday and Thank you for taking a peek here today.

  7. That's a beautiful sentiment you found for your card today! I've been making Mother's and Father's day cards too so I can ship them off before the deadlines. I hope you're faring well weather-wise. Don't know if you're getting more snow, but it started here at 4 PM and we already have a couple inches out there. Bring on Spring!!
    Enjoy your evening!

  10. Hi Donna, this is just the sweetest Mom's Day card. Love that verse, and your sketch is a nice layout too. Looked to me like you had it done perfectly. Loved the soft colors & that is a wonderful EF for this verse too! Hope you got to relax today and some relief from the snow. Upstate SC is gearing up for what we are told will be a pretty good storm (that being relative to what you folks in PA have been having, of course!). TFS &Hugs
