If you came here from Kimberly''s blog then you are in the right place, but if you just happened upon my blog you can start at the beginning at Lynne's blog.

I have two projects for you today...

A Mother's Day Card... it is a flower pot card.. the top is made of silk flowers. I always put a butterfly on it. I made a few of these for Mother's Day all kinds of flowers. MS border punch, twine, spellbinders labels 11, and tim holtz embossing folder. I found the tutorial for these online but wanted it a little different size so I made it bigger.

My second project is a card for No Diet Day.

It's very simple but cute.

(love that flourish!)

Thanks for stopping by .. head on over to Angie's blog to check out her awesome project!
