Pals Paper Arts and SUO Challenges

I had a chance to play with some new rubbah tonight!  I made this card for two great challenge blogs; Pals Paper Arts and SUO Challenges.

Pals had a great challenge to used a recipe...one designer paper, one punch and one sentiment.  Easy peasy!  Except I missed the deadline...got my days mixed up, thought I had until tomorrow to post.  Oh well, it was a great challenge and really inspired me!  Then the SUO Challenges asked for our favourite "new" stamp set and this was what I needed to ink up my new sets called "Established Elegance" and "Field Flowers".

I made this card for my mom because she has over halfway to her goal weight and she is looking amazing!  She just turned 60 and wanted to be more fit.  She has been working so hard...you should see the difference.  None of her clothes fit, she is down many sizes with still a long journey ahead but I am so proud of her accomplishments. 

Thanks for stopping by!!!
Smiles,
Lesley
