How Many Mother's!

Here is another Mother’s Day card that I’ve made for a friend of mine to give to his mother this Sunday and it meets the criteria for the ‘Anything Goes Challenge’ who would like you to make your own embellishments. 
 
 
Over at Melissa Bickford’s blog she has made the cutest flower arrangements using felt and her latest flower fusion #2 die, which I received in the post from PTI yesterday.
I thought her card was so beautiful I’d try and create one the same….how fiddly are those flowers to make? I’m not entirely happy with the centre of the flowers; I need more practice to get the curl more curly! 
 
 
The other technique I was impressed with was how the scalloped borders stood up, just by scoring a thin line; I will definitely be using that idea again. 
 

The papers used for my card are from the Madeline collection by Prima and Pacific Vineyard by PTI.

Thanks for looking. x
