MFT Sketch Challenge #276

I have seen several cards pairing the MFT gnomes and succulents, and I just had to have both sets! We recently got a gnome for the front yard and my 2 year old loves it, he says "hi gnome" every morning and goes over and pats his hat. So I went to show him this card and he says "WOW!" and then I pointed at the gnome and said "Sonny who is this?" thinking he would say gnome for sure, but he said..."Papa" LOL! Of course I had to text Nana right away and she thought it was hilarious too. Anyway, here is my take on this week's sketch, and the first Mother's Day card I've made this year:

Happy Mother's Day!

I know a LOT of mothers! Each one of them has played a special part in my life. In fact after I made this first batch, I realized that there were several more I just couldn't leave out, I ended up making 19 of these cards! (I still could have made a few more, too). Anyway, here is what I ended up making for Mother's Day cards this year:


The stamps are all from Paper Smooches. The patterned paper is from PTI. So is the cardstock and the ribbon.


For this flower I stamped it on the colored cardstock then added detail with Copics.


The tag that the sentiment is stamped on is from a SU punch.


Here is a look at the first batch :)


I am so lucky to be very close with my own mom, and even though we don't live close to one another, we talk often. She's always the first to know when I'm excited about some crafty thing ;) Also my sister and sister in law are celebrating their first Mother's Days this year. One day I look forward to celebrating this day myself, as well :) To all you Mothers out there, thank you for all you do!
