Beautiful Aqua card Wendy. I would never have known it wasn't inked paper!
I hope you all get time to play this month. I don't think I shall so much now..although I should make a 2nd birthday card for GD

You tattletale, you can thank me later! Don't let Elaine, hear you say that. Lovely card Wendy, very elegant and the embossed flourish background is all it needs, it just sets it off nicely.

Wendy and Elaine I just love your cards, We have been decorating so not much making just playing, I now have nice paper a stamp positioner and a lot of images just need time to start putting things together, I am making a card with my DGD tonight for her mum, we have cut some hearts and flowers out and she picked some papers, she was so funny trying to decide what to use that we ran out of time.

Some Mother's Day cards from me. Actually, I've made these before one in a pink instead of lilac but not used them as Mother's Day so thought I'd put them here. The third has the merest hint of yellow in it so it can go into this month's card challenge.

Lovely Susie, I especially like the circular one :-)

Thanks Wendy, the circular one was more fiddly especially trying to get an insert to fit. Only wish I'd thought of that before I made it!

I love your cards Susie, Those circular dies are lovely but I love the blue middle, the flowers and different leaves.

Lovely to see so many new cards getting added to this thread! They are fab!

Here are my two recent Mother's Day makes for my SIL and for my mum:

That is just lovely Wendy, I love steam punk and Nat your cards are so clean and crisp, I love them all.

[Susie.A]

Thanks Chris, the middle flowers are Martha Stewart with a few pine branches added to bulk it out.

Love the steam punk card Wendy and goes to show what a difference the lighting makes doesn't it. One looks like a silver background and one looks almost bronze but both look great!

I took mine in the evening and it left the lilac card looking a bit flat but they needed to go first thing.

Your cards are gorgeous as always Nat. Hard to choose which is my favourite, both lovely, but I think, not that I have to choose of course, the second one, I love the central die and the birds paper and that little bit of scalloping at the bottom.

[Mystik Nat]

Aw thank you both. Well I still have to get a Christening card made this weekend not to mention start on some Easter cards!
