I had the most wonderful Mother's Day this year. Jimmy and the kids made me breakfast in bed which consisted of freshly ground coffee, Monkey Bread, and strawberries. Yum, yum, yum!
What made the day even better was the unearthing of my new craft room! On Saturday, I made a trip to Ikea to buy two new desks, one for me and one for Jimmy. We've decided to share the room and half will be his home office and the other half will me my home office. Shh! Don't tell him, but I think my papers and stamps will quietly migrate to his side of the room....
Quick sports news flash: Caps just one game 6!!! Yay! We're going to game 7, kids!!
Back to our regularly scheduled post...
I was so excited to see all my toys again, that I put together two desks and unpacked all my stuff Saturday night so that on Mother's Day I could get down to business and make a belated birthday card for my co-worker. Her birthday was last month, but I can't give my hard-earned money to Hallmark! I need to make my own cards! You know what I mean, right?!
I've been seeing tons of flower pot cards online, so I just had to make one. Mine's not as embellished as some of the ones I've seen, but this is the first time I've stamped since January! I need to ease in a bit...

Here's what the insert looks like:
Now for the recipe:Stamps: Crazy for Cupcakes
Paper: Close to Cocoa, Whisper White, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, To the Nines DSP
Accessories: So Saffron SAB ribbon, Big Shot, Simple Flower and Birds and Blooms dies, white gel pen, Apricot Appeal marker, scallop edge punch
Hope you have a great one!

Amy, this is lovely! You did a great job on this! I can't bring myself to buy a card either. It's handmade by me or they just don't get one. LOL
