Mother's Day Gifts with Lovebug Creations

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome to the Gifts in Honor of Mother's Day blog hop, sponsored by Lovebug Creations!

Today the Rumple Ribbon Creative Team, along with a few customers (including me) are sharing with you gifts for Mother's Day.

You should have come from Dardies' blog, but if you just stumbled upon my post, please hop on over to the Lovebug Creations blog and start from the beginning.  You won't want to miss a single blog!

Here is my Mother's Day card that I made:




Supplies:
patterned papers from the My Mind's Eye "Ooh La La for Her" stack
solid cardstock
Spellbinders "Scallop Rectangle" die
buttons
sentiment from Jaded Blossom's "Mother's Day" set
and of course, Rumple Ribbon from Lovebug Creations
"Rosebud", "Sunflower", and "Caddy Blue"

I made the flowers by carefully gathering along one edge with a needle and thread.  I then used glue dots to adhere them to small circles of cardstock.  I added a button for the centers.


The ribbons can be found here in their shop.  And there are so many beautiful colors to choose from!


Lovebug Creations is offering blog candy which is a $15 gift certificate to the store.  In order to qualify you must comment on and follow ALL blogs!  The winner will be announced Monday May 6 on their blog!


Your next stop is Jane's blog.

Thanks for stopping by!
