Guest Designer Day at One by One the Flamingo's Are Stealing My Sanity

Guest Designer Day @ One by One the Flamingos are Stealing My Sanity



Okay so today is my day to be Guest Designer @ One by One the Flamingos are stealing my sanity.  I want to thank my dear friend Karel for choosing as a member of her Design Team.  It's such an honor. 

Karel is actually the reason why I really got involved in blogging and entering challenges... cause yes I have always like most of the items I make (everyone has a few that bomb, right???)
And, she said to me to just give it a try and see what happens... well, I think that ever since I've gotten more involved I've spruced up all of the items I do... I never imagined I'd be using stamps and embossing... yeah I know now I can't believe that there ever was a time...

Okay I know your not here to read all of my ramblings... I just can't help myself sometimes.



   The project that I'd like to share with you is the Mother's Day Card that I made for My Mom and my MIL this year...






This is what the outside of the card looks like.
I love the butterflies so pretty.


And now i'd like to show you what the inside looked like.


on the inside I wrote:
Mom, Ma, Mom-Mom, or Nana
We may all call you by a different name.
You hold a special place in our hearts,
just the same.
All of us are here to wish you a very
Happy Mother's Day!!!
