Special Mom Cards

Hello and happy Friday to everyone!
I'm sharing 2 cards with you today.  It's been a productive week for me and I have loved every single card that I have produced.  I think they have been some of my best cards yet!

For this first card, I following the sketch at Mojo Monday this week.
Isn't that just so cute!!  The flower image is from Melonheadz.  I took the flower part of the image and turned it into a cut file and then cut out 3 of them in staggered layers.  The center of the little flowers is a blue brad that I covered with some light blue stickles.
The white panel is embossed with my D'vine Swirls folder and then mounted on green card stock with a scallop cut border from Bird's Cards.  I added some blue dots to the corner and at the base of each detail on the border.

The image is colored with my pencils.  I added a little white bow and some light blue stickles to the petals.
This card is entered in the following challenges:
    Mojo Monday Sketch #237
    Paper Pretties-Embossing
    Ribbon Carousel #49-Color-a-licious

My second card follows the sketch at Simon Says this week.
I was a little worried about using such a dark teal paper...it just seemed so dark and I wasn't sure if I'd be able to brighten it up!  But I think it turned out great.  The image is Ava Flowers from Bugaboo, again colored in with my pencils.  I punched out some daisy's to match the flowers in the image and added some clear gems to the centers.

I added a strip of blue glitter ribbon.  At the time of choosing that ribbon, I didn't realize how glittery it was...but by the time the card was complete my desk, my hands, my floor, the card were completely covered in glitter!  Quite a mess...but I love glitter and I love this ribbon :)

This card is entered in the following challenges:
