Whimsy and Stars Blog Hop {Happy Mother's Day}


Welcome to another Whimsy and Stars Studio Blog Hop! I am excited to share that Mabelle has invited me to stay on for another term and I am absolutely thrilled to be on her Spring Design Team. Thank you so much Mabelle!

This is our Blog Hop order:

·         Marsha Sanderlin

Mabelle has a sweet new digital stamp to share with you this week called Garden Joy!! I thought the image would just be perfect for Mother's Day, which is just around the corner!!! I bought some new My Mind's Eye paper and I was so excited to cut into it for this card! 


For my yellow rose, I pulled one out of my embellishment kit and smooshed it down a bit, then I added a pearl to the center. I also wanted to add some black and white baker's twine to my card for some visual interest. 

{Supplies Used}
Stamps: Garden Joy
Inks:  Memento Tuxedo Black and Copics
Papers: My Mind's Eye (Tangerine), Kraft, Black and White
Extras: Baker's Twine, Pre-Made Rose


I am also playing along with the following challenges:

Make it Monday - W - always Anything Goes
