Mother's Day Surprise


I thought I would share this wonderful gift set that I made for my mother and this stamp set, Messages to Mom, will be retiring after this month.  I hate to see it go!  I have made cards through out the year with this one stamp set.

Here are views of each item individually!  The gift bag first!


Here are the items I used for the bag!
Stamps: Four Frames, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Card Stock: Whisper White
Designer Paper: Summer Garden (retired) 
Ink: Riding Hood Red, Daffodil Delight for sponging
Accessories: Markers for coloring and frame, Scallop round punch for flowers, Glimmer Brads, Decorative label punch, Extra Large two step bird punch, Scallop edge punch, riding hood red ribbon (retired)
Technique: altering gift bag (brown gift bag bought in bulk)

And here is the candle!


Stamps: Messages for Mom
Card Stock: Riding Hood Red, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive
Designer Paper: Summer Garden (retired)
Ink: Riding Hood Red
Accessories: Fire Circle Rhinestone Brads, 1 1/4 round punch, Shimmer paint diluted in spray bottle, Extra Large two step bird punch, markers for coloring, white tissue paper

And now the card!

BEAUTIFUL gifts for your Mom, Jonia! How wonderful that you can use those verses in Proverbs to describe your Mother. As a Mother...that is what I intend to be as I grow up! With lots of help from the Lord! ;o) Isn't it nice that we're both back in the blogging world? lol I missed you! :o)
