Isn't this Velvet Ribbon from Cox & Cox just yummy? You know I LOVE ribbon, so these spools drew me right in. There's a bit of a rugged masculine feel to this one, but you'll see below that I couldn't resist to make it a little feminine:)

Happy Mother's Day
Even though the color combination this week lends itself to somewhat of a masculine feel, I decided to make a Mother's Day card. I saw a layout similar to this in the Paper Crafts magazine...love that mag:) That sweet little birdie punch hasn't had nearly enough love from me...it's just so cute and versatile. He looks great in solid cardstock, designer paper, embossed cardstock, you name it...

Paper: Rose Red, Not Quite Navy, Kraft, Whisper White CS, Bella Bleu & retired DSP
Ink: Not Quite Navy, Sahara Sand
Other: Big Shot, Birds & Blooms and Little Leaves Sizzlets, Extra Large Bird Punch, Corner Rounder Mat Pack & Paper Piercing Tool, Fresh Favorites II & Kraft Corduroy Buttons, Linen Thread
