Heart 2 Heart Challenges: Mother's Day

This first Heart 2 Heart challenge for May is to create a Mother's Day project.  (You have all month to play.)  Be sure to visit the H2H blog for inspiration and to link up your own Mother's Day project. 

I created this card for my mother-in-law using the Florentine paper pack, the May stamp of the month, and the Tag the Occasion stamp set.  Since she's an avid reader, I stamped the large sunflower with Cocoa ink onto an old book page and again on my card front.  (That way all the details outside of the sunflower itself still show on my card.)  I cut out the sunflower and then watercolored it with Cocoa and Creme Brulee inks.  The ribbon and little tag completed this simple card front.

Thanks for taking a look at this Mother's Day card.  I've got another one to share later this week for my Mom too. ;)  Here's an early happy Mother's Day wish to all moms everywhere!  You are loved and appreciated!

Now go check out the H2H blog and get your project ready to link up!

  1. How pretty! Clever use of old book pages:). I got treated to an early MD dinner by your sweet brother last night. It's the season, right?!
