Mother's Day In Primrose Petals

Today I have a Mother's Day card to share.  I rarely use Primrose Petals, so I thought I'd use it for this card to change things up.

The card base was embossed with the Lacy Brocade EF.  I found some large doilies in my craft room around Valentine's Day so I used one here.  I attached it to the card then cut off the part hanging over.  The large scallop heart from the Hearts a Flutter bundle was stamped in Primrose then die cut with the matching framelit.  My greeting was too long to stamp inside the heart, so I stamped it then punched it with the word window.  To make the greeting stand out I die cut a banner from the Bitty Banners Framelits in Primrose to go behind it, then popped up the greeting with dimensionals so it would stand out a bit more.  To add color to the doily, I punched out flowers to attach and added pearls in the center.  I also added in retired organza ribbon in Pretty In Pink to add to the soft look of the card.  A couple of leaves from the bird punch added just a touch of a different color and made the heart perfect.  I was going to put this card in the bookstore to sell, but I think this one will go to my Mom! 
Thanks so much for visiting and checking out today's creation!  Tomorrow is Thursday , so I have a card to share for the Thursday Challenge with Create with Connie and Mary. See you then!
