Sketch Saturday

As always they have a wonderful sketch for us this week and I really enjoyed doing this one but hey I love them all lol.I used some of the new Magnolia's that a dear friend sent me I colored them with my copic's and spica glitter pens and I did use my glazed pens in a few places. I cut the images out and mounted them on a piece of SU cardstock that I had ran through the cuttlebug embossing folder. The PP is from K&Co aren't they gorgeous?? I so love there papers. I have used the Martha Stewart lace border punch and the easter stamp is one of the G stamps. I also punched out some daisies with one of the punches I had and really not for sure the brand of the punch.

The Sugar Bowl

Over at the Sugar Bowl the theme is to make a Mothers Day card. This was really hard for me since my Mother is no longer with me just brought back times I remembered so well but I made the card for my granddaughter to give to her mommy for Mother's Day. We won't have ours here in the states for awhile. I used one of the gorjuss girls I just think these are the cutest stamps and so easy to color in. She is colored in with my copics and spica glitter pens. I used some BG and K&CO paper here and some raffia ribbon that a very dear friend sent me. SOme prima flowers with a brad and spacer in the center with some leaf and branch punches. I hadded a SU button in the one corner and the punches for the wording is also from SU. The wording is computer generated.
