Happy Mother's Day !

I just had to buy this Cocoa Mouse image today - it is so perfect for any spring cards, I decided to get a huge head start, and make a Mother's Day card!!

Image is coloured with Copics and accented with stickles, and then matted with black cardstock and Echo Park papers, which are also used on the card base.
Flowers are from the $ store, (they were white and black) and I colored the purple and yellow ones to match, with my Copics.
Sentiment is Hero Arts, cut and matted with Nestabilities, black bling is Prima, and yellow scalloped strip is Bazzill Just the Edges.
Challenges:
The Sweet Stop - sketch 95
Crazy 4 Cocoa - Green, purple and yellow
Stampalicious - Bling, glitter and glitz
Papertake Weekly - Putting on the Glitz
Digital Tuesday - use a diecut
The Creative Cottage - Fabulous Florals
7 kids College Fund - Square cards
Charisma Cardz - spring has sprung
Totally papercrafts - do it with digis
