Sweet Mother's Day Card

Yayyy Me!   I finally did a challenge before the week was up!
I did this card for Mother's Day for the H2H Challenge this week, but I also used the Mojo Monday pattern to do this, and I love how sweet the design came out....they have some great ideas over there if you need some motivation to get the creativity going.
All the product used was from Close To My Heart (of course).  I did use several different stamp sets for this card, as well as a couple of different paper packs.


Colors:  sweet leaf, juniper, and chocolate
Paper packs: bliss and wings
Stamp sets:
 January SOTM-Find Your Style
 You and Me (for May's National Scrapbooking Month)
 Paisley Praise (for the mother sentiment)
 Universal Backgrounds (for the music notes behind the bird)
Also used the opaque adhesives, mocha (instead of brads) and some chocolate ribbon

Using the Mojo Monday Design, I sponge daubed everything with chocolate ink to give it a more cohesive look.  The scallop circle is the 2 1/2" punch, and the top scallop edge is done with the corner rounder (just take the base off and line it up, super easy)

Remember this is National Scrapbooking Month~CTMH is having a special to become a consultant for HALF PRICE!  a rare opportunity.  Make sure you go to my CTMH website to check it out.
The other special for May is when you spend $50, you can get the Just You and Me kit for Half Price $15!  This includes a D-Size stamp set, ribbon, and opaques, and enough paper to do at least two 2-page layouts.  A Fantastic Deal.... even at the full price of $34.95!
