How are you on this lovely Thursday evening? I got off work
early today, which doesn't happen too often, but I didn't ask twice about it!:-) It gave me the chance to get to my craft room and play with one of my favorite challenges, The Shabby Tea Room! Please take a look over there and see what beautiful cards are displayed by the design team and challenge players! The theme this week is "Pretty as a Picture." We were to follow the inspiration photo colors and include a rose.
Here is the inspiration photo...
A closer look of my card...

care and have a wonderful Mother's Day!!:-))
