Good morning to you all. I hope you are all feeling well and that all you ladies are being spoiled by your husbands and offspring on this Mothering Sunday. Spring is definitely just about here - although she keeps teasing us I think by giving us good days then bad.
Gosh, these two weeks fly round so quickly. This time it was Sylvie's choice of "Anything Goes". I actually made two different cards since I couldn't make my mind up. So now I have an extra one which I will show later.

My Card
Recipe
Heartfelt Creations - Sentiment Stamp
Creative Expressions - Snowflake Lattice embossing folder
Spellbinders - Opulent Ovals
Spellbinders - Classic Ovals large
Spellbinders - Foliage
Marianne Creatables - Poinsettia die
Pearls from stash
My base card is 5" x 7" made from Papermania card stock.The sentiment was stamped with Encore Ultimate Metallic Blue. I also used the same ink to colour the card stock because all the blue card I had was totally wrong. I then added a smudge of ink to the poinsettia and some Diamond Dust. A few pearls finished it off.
Well that's it from me for today but I hope you all enjoy the rest of the weekend.
