Bloom, grow, live

Happy Friday everyone!  I hope you have all had a super week and got lovely weekend planned!  To end my week, here is a card I made for this week's Michelle Perkett Studios challenge for Mothersday Europe.  We actually had our UK one some time ago, but I can never make enough thank you cards for my mum and MIL!

 
 


I made this for my hubby to give to his MIL who does a lot of gardening - I know she'd rather be doing other things though!  I used a Michelle Perkett Studio digi called 'bloom, grow, live' (bet you couldn't have guessed that, huh?!!) and you can get her here.  I used the fabby new My Minds Eye Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky (bought mine from Quixotic Paperie here) - this new MME Lime Twist collection is LUSCIOUS!!!  So much so, I bought them all!  (Bad Mary!).

I am entering  this card also into the following challenges:


Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, My Minds Eye Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky (bought mine from Quixotic Paperie here)
Stamps:
Michelle Perkett Studio 'bloom, grow, live' (here), CC Designs sentiments inside card
Mediums: Copics
Accents: ribbon from stash, pearls (from Quixotic Paperie here)
Tools: Nestabilities dies, Martha Stewart border punch
