Happy 95th Birthday Mom!

 Yes, today's card is made for my mom's birthday, which is today.  Let me warn you right now, it is not in fall colors!  Her favorite color is PINK and that is what she is gonna get.  I didn't have a particular sketch in mind, so I decided to go with the current Mojo Monday sketch.  I think it came out great.  I do have to tell you a quick story before I get to my card.  Last week, when I went to visit my mom at the nursing home, I decided to take in a box of my cards I've made to show her just for something different to talk about.  Anyway, she liked all of them but when she came to the one that had the sentiment on it that says "To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world", she started crying and saying how that was such a lovely sentiment.  I decided right then I would stamp that sentiment on her card.  You have seen it used on my cards a few times and this will be another time.  Thanks for letting me share my sweet mom story.  Let me show you my card   And the sketch.  Enjoy!

I do want to note that on the sketch, there were buttons.  But, I didn't have any that were the right color, so even though it is a variation, I went with the rhinestones instead.  I think having the circles behind them gives an illusion of a button.  In the Verve set, there was a small "mom" stamp, so I stamped it and added it under the ribbon.  And of course, I added the flower.  It just needed it to complete it.  I love the card and I know she will too.  If we take a good picture of her, I will try to post it later today.
