I made this card kind of quickly today for my Mom who just had surgery last week. She's doing really well thank goodness. I hope this card brightens her a day a bit.
I based this on a card we did at my stamp club, but made a larger card (5.25 x 5.25), glittered up my flowers, added pearls, a leaf punch, paper piercing and a different embossing folder.
The first mat, the image mat and all the flowers and greeting are popped up on dimensionals. I used the finial press ef on the white framed mat.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and have a great Sunday evening.
Punchkateer Punch Tally: 5 Punches for a weight loss of at least 25 pounds, but that big, juicy steak and loaded baked potato I just ate probably added it back on!!

Pam this is so cheery and pretty. I am sure your mom loved it and perked her right up. I am glad that she is recovering okay. I would love to send a card to her too, pm me her name and I can send it to you if she lives close. Or I can mail it to her. Just let me know. Man when I only do galleries on Sat. now I get lost in the week's stuff. ugh.. So sorry girlie, I would of been on top of this before. Forgive me... hugs...

LOVE this, Pamzi!! It really rocks. I hope it cheered your Mom (how could it *not* ????) and that she is still doing well with her recovery. I'm lovin' that 5-punch tally!! That SU scalloped border PATP is so tricky, but you nailed it. And what is a pam124 card without pearls???? Gorgeous, my Punchkateer friend
