Hi All, Can you believe Mother's Day is right around the corner? Where does the time go!?

Flowers and Cardstock All the flowers and leaves were created with only six dies from the Stitched Blooms set and the following colors of MFT cardstock: Wild Wisteria and Lavender Fields for the purple flowers; Lemon Chiffon and Lemon Drop for the yellow flowers; and Sour Apple ...
Hi Everyone, The moment I saw the sneak peek of Concord & 9th's Fine Line Florals stamp set I knew I had to have it.

There are also a lot of great sentiments in this set - I can't recommend it enough! Image To start I stamped the main floral image onto the bottom of a piece of Neenah Solar White, 80 lb, cardstock with Lawn Fawn's Storm Cloud ...
