Loved the challenge to-day. Thanks Robin. Mother's Day will be here soon and when Noofy Jr. was little there was always a mason jar full of dandylions on the coffee table. Seems in our neck of the woods dandylions are the only flower that has even made an effort to appear. I stamped the mason jar on a piece of vellum and cut it out. The stems were scraps but I think they came from Memory Box and at one time had flowers attached! LOL I punched lots of flowers with a $tore punch, sprayed them with water, scrinched them up and let them dry. The leaves are a two step punch from Nellie Snellen. The top corner was scored and I used a dressmaker's tracing wheel to make the stitching.

Mrs Noofy, you must be a sewer: I haven't heard of a tracing wheel in years and years. Love the faux stitching and your pretty floral arrangement. Perfect for mom's day.

Wow. Your beautiful scrunched flowers are just what that jar needed. And your scoring and stitching details give a lovely finishing touch. Love the vellum on the jar, too. I've gotta try that. Great card.

Lovely lovely card! My kids would gather wildflowers for me every time we went up into the mountains and every time my middle child would sneeze the entire weekend! We finally figured out she was allergic! I sure missed my hand picked bouquets from my kids!
