I just received this MFT stamp and die set as a gift from my family for MotherÂ’s Day (which is celebrated here in March instead of May) and couldnÂ’t wait to use it so it wasnÂ’t hard to decide what to do for todayÂ’s challenge!
I used the MFT sketch this week.
A ticket corner punch was used to make a thin black frame for the sentiment label - I love this sentiment, itÂ’s exactly what I want to say to friends who are going through rough times. Hopefully the dpÂ’s come pretty close to this weekÂ’s challenge colors - I have plenty of Melon Mambo, though I had to substitute for Concord Crush with the only purple cardstock that I possess! ItÂ’s hard to believe my month is as guest designer is over, IÂ’ve really enjoyed it, and thanks to the Color Challenge team for the opportunity!
More about this card on my blog.

This is so pretty in classic Bridget style! Your stitching is lovely and I so love your twine bows. The umbrella is so cute. What a great present. This is a lovely card.
