Mother's Day Card

In my previous post, I made a candy tote box for my mom, today I'm posting a card I made for my hubby's mom...my mother in law.  I'm very lucky to have a mother in law who is also a friend.  Not everyone can say that :-)  

She's really a very simple person so I wanted to keep her card simple but let her know I put lots of LUV into making a card for her.  
Card size is 5x7  I blended a little pink/peach around the edges of the card.   I used the Jasmine cartridge and my gypsy to link the letters and cut out MOM and layered it.
I used the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge for the grass. Making two layers of grass and pop dotted the second layer.  I added some ribbon on the bottom of the grass so it wasn't a 'blunt' look.

I used Emma's MCT Rolled Flower Dies for the flowers.  The leaf is from the Accent Essentials cartridge.  As for the stem, I just winged it there.

For the sentiment I used a stamp from my stash, I don't think I've ever used it before, but thought it was fitting for this card.
FRIENDS ARE THE FLOWERS IN THE GARDEN OF LIFE!
See what I mean, that sentiment is perfect. 

Here's wishing all the Mom's out there a wonderful Mother's Day. 
Chao for now! --C
