Mother's Day Card

So I had an idea in my head that involved blue and cream toile and lots of cream organza ribbon, but I just couldn't translate the idea to the card (it would have helped if I had the toile paper I dreamed in my head) I could see it when I thought about it but it was all a little blurry so I couldn't fixate on the exact design - I get that a lot, either old age or a lack of creativity!

This is what I eventually ended up making, not quite what I had in mind but it does feature the ubiquitous swirl die!

I also embellished a little shopping list pad to go with the card.

I think tomorrow should be scrapbooking day, I've exhausted all my card making abilities for now!

More cards..

I've been on a card making jag just recently!

I love the new Imaginisce papers, they are just so pretty I bought 4 sheets!

My new swirl die is being put to good use!

These two are using the Junkitz celebration papers, I thought they would also make pretty reasonable men's cards, I always seem to have trouble with those!
