This week's sketch is shown below - and the second part of the challenge is to incorporate a "mothers" theme into your project. With Mother's Day coming up next month, in the southern hemisphere, this is a good time to be thinking of cards for that occasion. Alternatively, a birthday card or other project made especially for a Mum would fit this challenge nicely.
I've made a card using the beautiful Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper that was one of Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous freebies during Sale-a-Bration this year.
Stamps: Elizabeth, For My Family
Card: Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, Naturals Ivory
DSP: Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper
Ink: Crumb Cake stampin' pad and marker, Poppy Parade stampin' pad, Basic Black stampin' pad, Soft Suede stampin' pad
Other: Stamp-a-ma-jig, Corner Rounder punch, Victoria crochet trim, Crumb Cake seam binding, Everyday Enchantment brad, sponge daubers, Color Spritzer tool, Fun Flowers die, Modern Label punch, Basic Pearl, Fancy Flower punch, 5-Petal Flower punch, Boho Blossoms punch, sticky strip
