"Vintage Garden" Mother's Day Card!!

Happy Mothers Day!

I wish I could have had this ready for this morning (Sunday), but just could not get to my laptop to start....so I'm a day late when this is published, oh well....I have a good reason, I was making my mom her Mother's Day card! 

I will share my haul video of the newest release of Pion Designs called , "Vintage Garden"!

Pinks, creams, sage or minty greens and white! 
Then of course it's not complete without using paper flowers from
