Today is the sketch challenge at the Red Hot Stampers Blog.

Here is the sketch for this week:

Here is my take on the sketch:

There was an additional challenge this week and that was to make the card for Mother’s Day.

So with this in mind I decided to turn the sketch and use the Retiring Manhattan Flower Folder #114517 $7.95. My Mom loves flowers and every year she gets a hanging basket for Mother’s day. If she doesn’t get the basket she will ask where her flower basket is? I think this card will be the perfect card to give her with her basket.

I used the Very Vanilla Seam Binding ribbon #120999 $6.95 and tied a triple bow using the Double D Bow Maker.

Here’s a close up:

The little Mom was from the Family Reunion stamp set #122710 $35.95 or #122712 $25.95. It was punched out using the 1″ Circle punch #119868 $12.95 and then matted on the 1 1/4″ Scallop Circle Punch #127811 $15.95.

If you would like to order any of these products please go to my website HERE.

Remember to use the Hostess Code: XUFRAVMK and you will be entered into the drawing for the Mystery Hostess.

Good Luck and thank you for your orders.

Have a great day and Happy Stamping!
