More Buttons and Bows for Mom.

I have another Mother's Day card to share with you today.

As I read through the sweet comments people have been leaving it occured to me that I should be thanking all of you not only for the touching comments which I appreciate more than you know but that I should also thank you for offering such wonderful challenges and sharing your extremely talented design teams with us.

The challenges have helped me try some combinations I may not have tried AND to use some of those craft items that I just HAD TO HAVE but haven't used or used very little.
So thank you to everyone for the inspiration!!!

On with my card....

*Card base 5.5 x 4.25 in.
*Card front 5.25 x 4 in.
*Dot design strip 1.75 x 4 in. using the 8 x 8 Making Memories Garden Party pad.
