Happy Friday, peeps! Happy weekend! Looking forward to spending some time with the family this weekend, how about you? Hope you have something fun planned! I thought the Sugar Pea Mix it Up challenge this week was a pretty one:
and I needed a Mother's Day card for John's stepmother, so I pulled out W Plus 9's Freehand Florals and made some roses for my simple CAS card:
I had watched this video which was very helpful in lining up these beautiful layered stamps! I mounted them on a Crumb Cake panel which was stamped with the retired Dictionary stamp, then I sponged the edges a bit for a vintage look. Before sponging, I cut the corner of my panel, as well as my card, with a 1 3/4" circle punch to get the rounded edge. My sentiment is from Altenew's Label Love. The inside just has a simple Mother's Day sentiment from a past Paper Pumpkin kit. Aren't these colors pretty?
So happy that you popped in today!
And speaking of Mother's Day, Cassidy's class had a luncheon for their moms yesterday. They brought in different items for their menu, and Dana chose a turkey sandwich, which Cassidy made (without mayo, because that's how SHE likes it), and Cassidy added not one, but two chocolate chip muffins and some chips. A good, healthy lunch, LOL! I told Dana it looked like she used an entire loaf for the sandwich, but it was just the heel:

And the muffin actually looks like a little face!! But they had fun and Dana got to meet some of Cassidy's classmates as well as their moms, too!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

What a wonderful treat for Cassidy, and her Mom! Oh goodness, you've brought me back to my own childhood again, LeAnne! I loved it when my Mom was 'room mom!'
ReplyDeleteLOve your darling roses - and it's far too long since I've seen someone use that dictionary stamp - it always connects the sentiment so beautifully...
