Just Because You're Amazing

I've been quiet all week and now you get me twice in one day!  Lol :)

But this is an exciting post for me since it is my first official post as a Meljen's Design team member!!  I know I did a little thank you post here last week, but that was more for me...whereas this post is actually associated with a challenge!!  Yay!

So the challenge for this week is Mom!  I've made a lot of mom cards these last few weeks, so mine isn't necessarily specific to mother's day, but could be given to a mom for any reason :)

I had a blast making this card!  Learned that the ink in my black refill bottle actually looks purple..but I rolled with it anyhow :)

I've used the super cute Little Layered Flowers set and colored them all in with my pencils.  Of course, I've added glitter to the centers.  A fun package came in the mail for me this week containing my order from Simon Says Stamp, so I pulled out my new Stitched Journaling die from Lawn Fawn and did some half embossing to make a small tag for the sentiment, which was also in that fun package.

The stripes are from a Tim Holtz stencil and I used some embossing paste to fill it all in.  It was really fun to see this whole card come together, and I think the flowers just finished it off perfectly!

So swing by Meljen's Designs to check out the rest of the design teams creations, and then join in the fun!!!
