Best Mothers Day *Color Combos Galore #191

Mother's day is just a couple of days away so HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all of you and your wonderful moms! Color Combos Galore Challenge #191 is live (check out the beautiful layouts and cards from the Design Team HERE) and the theme is best Mothers Day Gift Ever. When I thought of my best gift, my first thought was one year when Mom and Jim went to Moody Gardens with us. Now the colors this week are awesome and my mom loves daisies, but I decided to add a touch of blue like in the inspiration photo -also because my dress was soooo blue in my photo. I used papers from My Minds Eye and Crate Paper. The daisies are Martha Stewart and the other flowers are made using MME papers and adapted from {this tutorial on youtube}. I used the same technique but added beads in the center and I decided to mostly use the medium version of that flower punch. Speaking of punches, do you love my new giant border punch? It's from EK Success and you will be seeing alot of it. LOL! The quilted heart is a cool find of mine. I went to our community wide garage sale a couple of weeks ago and found a piece of a very old quilt for $2. It's about 4x6' and I draped it across a dresser in my scraproom so I can cut off pieces to use. :)
