COF Mom's Day!

Good Morning!

I'm running a little late today! Had lots on my plate! Both fur babies are at the groomer! We also have a repair man at our house doing some warranty work! 

Today is the last day of the month.... soooo

the Crafter's of Faith have a card to share! Olga is our hostess and set the challenge. She asked for a 5x7 Mother's day card with a die cut and matching envelope!  I used the same set as the card I shared yesterday! Apothecary art. is such a versatile set! My card base is whisper white layered with regal rose and cheerful treat dp. My flowers were cut with spellbinders! Be sure and check out the rest of the girls... you can find their links on my sidebar!

Have a great day!

Good Afternoon!

We are having another beautiful sunny day! Doors and windows are wide open! I just love the smell of spring air and the chirping birds! Makes my heart happy!

My card base is early espresso layered whisper white and baja breeze. The dp is from MME. My sentiment is on a loose stamp and I have no idea the maker!

Have a great evening!
