Best Mom Ever!
Here's another Mother's Day card that I made for tomorrow:
I took a couple of different fonts and merged them into a rounded rectangle on the Silhouette. I then cut it out from a scrap piece of cream cardstock. A piece of acetate was glued to the back, and the entire panel was glued to the background with sequins enclosed (thin for mailing). The paper is from Paper Studio's Khloe Lane, and the sequins are a mixture of Doodlebug and Hobby Lobby. The card base is also from Paper Studios and it's ink blended with DI old paper to blend with the cream color in the print.
Thank you for coming over to visit. I hope all you mothers have a great mother's day, and for everyone who finds the day painful, I pray you have comfort and peace.

I hope you have a lovely day and that you know how talented and cool you are!!!
