I love it when I can use a challenge to make a card I need. I loved this layout!
My DIL's birthday is coming up. This Our Daily Bread sentiment describes her perfectly! If I could have chosen a DIL for my son, she would have been the one.
The Happy Birthday is from a new set being released next week by Mark's Finest Papers, as is the cardstock. The set is called "Hearts, Hearts, Hearts". The poinsettias are digitals from Beccy's Place. Designer Paper by KandCo. Embossing folders by Sizzix. I added a dab of color to the flowers with a Copic and then added beads to the centers. The ribbon is from the Offray factory. I think I did enough companies to set a record!
I am pleased with this card and hope you are too. BTW, after finishing, I realized green is Michelle's fav color - how's that!

Oh, your blurb about your DIL gave me goosebumps. How lucky she is to have you as her MIL! This is a beautiful creation and most certainly worthy of being framed.

So elegant and wonderful! I especially love the beads you put in the centers of the poinsettias! Your daughter-in-law will be thrilled to receive this, I'm sure.
