What Mama wouldn’t love to get this card!
Thanks for Sharing your pretty card. Great technique and I enjoyed your commentary
Key lime paper *WILL* change the world. Well, maybe just the paper crafting world, but that’s all that matters, right?!? And I too wish I had one of Jennifer McGuire’s ET fingers to use the jewel picker, and just a 10th of the talent she has in that finger! I’d love to see the garbage can in her craft room, cause I’m betting its not full of mistakes and failed attempts like the rest of us! Probably just scraps and maybe gum wrappers. I love how your card turned out though!!! Nailed it, for sure 🙂
Very Pretty

Beautiful bright spot to a very white weekend. Lol. Nice work.
I love watching your videos and seeing what makes you happy. It reminds me why I craft: it makes me happy! Thanks for showing us what your vision was when you made this set. (And it’s good to know that it never gets any easier to keep presents secret from one’s mama.)
I love your card! I just wish I had a die cutter so I could replicate it. I love that green color you used on Love You Mama and just on that part. I would never think to do that. That is so clever! I am in love with those clear droplets! I have some of those and I think they are so cool! When you want something to look like real water droplets those are the things to use. I have to use mine more. Thank you for showing us your pretty card and for giving us the chance to win something.
