For my other grandmother, the first thing that came to mind was roses. She has the entire Country Roses china collection, and likes rose scents, and of course the actual live flowers too. So I had to use Kitchen Sink Stamps 3-Step Roses. I thought about doing the pink-red of the Country Roses china, but I thought yellow would be a nice choice too. I used So Saffron and More Mustard for the roses, and Celery, Wasabi, and Garden Green for the Leaves. This mother's day sentiment comes from one of the retired All Year Cheers. I wanted a bit of something one the saffron background, so I stamped some French Script.
Supplies: Stamps- Kitchen Sink Stamps 3 Step Roses & Hearts, All Year Cheer, French Script, Ink and Paper by Stampin' Up!
Thanks for stopping by today! Happy Mother's Day!

Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.
This looks like a classic mothers day card that my mom and grandmothers just loved. Love the colors, the layout, the sense of reminiscence that it gives me. Just so lovely!

That's a very beautiful card- I think those rose stamps are the best ones I have EVER seen - and I am an SU diehard.... Great choice of color and I love the placement - the card is just GREAT!
