Feels Good to Be Back

Was super excited today when my mother-in-law took the girls out to lunch today!  Woohoooo....Mommy ran straight into her craft corner!!  It has been a little while since I've been able to get here and it felt so good to whip up some cards!  I was starting to have withdrawal symptoms, lol. 

One of the cards I made today is a Mother's Day card based upon the sketch over at The Pink Elephant Challenge Blog (and you know how much I loves me my sketches!!!)  Here is the sketch provided for the challenge this week:
And here is what I came up with:

Recipe:
Image:  CoffTime by Bugaboo Stamps
Medium:  Artist Loft Watercolor Pencils and Marvy Brush Marker in Cherry
Cuttlebug Swiss Dots Embossing Folder
Ribbon:  Doodlebug Designs Boutique Trims (Easter Asst.)
XMas Red Stickles
Distressing:  Colorbox Pigment Ink in Cranberry

Challenges:

    What a fabulous idea for a Mother's Day card! Great dp and color scheme. And that double bowed ribbon is the perfect accent to it.
