Birthday Card for Mom

Hello fellow Crafters, Happy Friday! I have a very special card to share with you all today. I made this birthday card for my mom:)



My color inspiration came from Cupcake Inspirations. Loved this color combo. Ok I know that my Apricot color is a little darker then the one on the color pallet but hey, it stills works :)lol.



I added lots of pop dots to give my card dimension. I don't know if you can see from the picture, but the paper has a very pretty metallic shine to it. The pretty paper rose is from my stash. I made it a few weeks ago with the Rolled Flower Dies from My Creative Time.


I used the DCWV "The Peachy Keen Stack. I Love this paper stack, I got it for sale at Joann's at the beginning of the year, and Im just getting the courage to use it up:)lol. Gotta love pretty paper:)lol. 


Kept the inside of the card simple. 

Products used: 
Lime Green Pearls from my stash
White Twine from my Stash
Sheer Ribbon from Stash
Paper Stack: DCWV The Peachy Keen Stack 
My Creative Time Products:
Celebrate Good Times 
Stitched Leaves Dies 
Stitched Doily Die
Vintage Stitched Label Dies
Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Dies 
Floral Sentiments 
Rolled Flower Dies 




I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Hello fellow crafters! I am so sorry that its been so long. I have been trying to accomplish a personal new years resolution and in doing so I have been putting my love for crafting aside, but no more! I know that can accomplish both my new years resolution and share my love for crafting in the bloggy world:) So heres my card I would like to share, with all of you. Its yet another Dr. Who inspired card. My boyfriend and I are so into the BBC show called Dr. Who:) I wanted to make him a special Valentines Day card, so naturally it was going to be a Dr. Who releated:)                                       The cute little white marshmallow creature is called an Adipose.
