Happy Mother's Day!

Good morning!

Aren't these daffodils so beautiful?
This is the time for them to be sure, our are a little late
(They usually come in mid February and then are snowed on
the 3rd week of February, LOL!)
This year they are barely making an appearance above ground.
I was starting to wonder if something got to them and we weren't 
going to see them at all!
My card is a Mother's Day wish today.
My own mom has been gone for quite some time but 
I do feel the miss of her very much this time of year 
and always want to make a Mother's Day card to 
remember her.

Instructions 

Card size: 5 5/8 X 6 3/4". (See video for cutting shaped cards), Cut white cardstock 7 X 11 then fold in half.  Place outer die of Elaborate Oval Frames so that top of die hangs off fold about 1/2".    Cut another outer die out of Luxe Gold then glue it to white folded card base.  Cut the large decorative part of die out of white and out of foam sheet.  Stack and glue then glue to the gold.  Cut Album Tag and Accents out of white also out of foam sheet, mat out of gold.  Stamp sentiment onto white layer, emboss with gold.  Glue tags together with mat and foam then glue them to the card center.

Cut 2 Sweetheart wide Borders out of white.  Glue one to the front and one to the back for a stand so that card sits straight while on display.

Stamp large daffodil using black, die cut then color with Copics or favorite coloring method.  Glue the daffodil to bottom and right side of the Elaborate Oval Frames. 

Glue a gold metallic bow to the bottom of daffodil stem.  Glitter flower and white parts of the card.
