Here is my MOTHER'S DAY CARD made for me by my uber-talented DAUGHTER!!

She doesn't craft with me much - well, not tons, so I tend to treasure everything she does!

But what really gets me - is how her style is so fresh and fun!  I would never of thought of this!

She does in a New York Minute!  Must be that young brain of hers!  

LOVE IT SWEETIE!  

Its a bouquet of flowers!  And I won't kill them - even better!!

Cool thing - the white section behind the Greeting and orange rectangle?  Well, its one of our Labels die cut from Whisper White cardstock and TRIMMED!  Just see how the outline differs from the original shape shown in this photo - Upper Right corner.....she cut off the bracket shape from top and bottom - clever girl!

Have a wonderful Mother's Day to each and every Mom out there!

Recently I created a lovely card for someone special { hey Justin!} whose 'very special' Mother favoured purple - and I want to leave that card as an original piece created just for them, but I have borrowed the basic elements to re-create this card!

My favourite technique on this is - well, two things::
 one) I love duplicating accents in acetate as I have done with the butterfly!  It creates a "glossy" look that I love!
two)  using ribbon to wrap around two out of three panel sections - this leaves the third panel to help make one colour pop - or to add accents, etc.

If you take a closer look - you can see I textured the smaller butterfly - using the tips of a snowflake embossing folder!  Who knew, lol!
