Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge #139

Sunday, May 13, 2012


Hi there!! Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers out there, and a special wish to my own Mama! 

Peggysue is our hostess at Stampin' Sisters in Christ today. She chose this scripture:
"Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive. " Genesis 6:20

The challenge is to use any type of animal, bug, or bird in your creation. We are also sponsored this week by Doodle Pantry! One lucky winner will win three Doodle Pantry images of the winner's choice!

I was BUSY this past Friday making Mother's Day cards, and I thought today would be an appropriate day to share them with all of you. I used the same image on three of them. 

The first three cards use the Treasured Clear Stamp Set by Sweet n Sassy Stamps. This one is for my Mama to give my grandmother. The layout is Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #158.


This card is for my mother-in-law. The layout is Split Coast Stampers Sketch Challenge #384.


This card is for my aunt! I love that this set included an "aunt" sentiment. I have a lot of special aunts! The layout is Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #157.


This card is for my grandmother, and it uses Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #158 again. I used the Smell the Flowers clear stamp set by Sweet n Sassy Stamps.



Challenges I'm Entering:
Ribbon Carousel #52 - Mother's Day sentiment

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to hop around and see what the other SSIC ladies have to share with you today. Have a great day!!

    I love these cards! I never think to dry emboss patterned paper, but it looks great. I think I'll have to try that. You made such lovely cards for all your "moms". I have a huge collection of cards in my studio and do you think I made one for any of my "moms" uh... NO! Good grief! I think I owe them big time! lol
    Blessings to you!
