Susan's Garden Violets


Today I have another card I created with violets created with the Susan's Gardens "Violets".  In case you missed it, I posted a tutorial on how I created these violets at this link.   

The lavender design paper is from the Kaiser Craft "Lil' Primrose" paper pad.  The white embossed piece was created with the Nellie Snellen "Rectangle Frame 1" embossing folder.  

I wanted to create a basket of flowers, so I die cut the Cheery Lynn "Spring Basket 1" in white card stock and lightly sponged it with lavender  Distress Ink.  The tiny leaves behind the violets were die cut with the Impression Obsession leafy branch die.  A small lavender bow was placed at the bottom of the violets and Kaiser Craft lavender pearls added to the top corners. 

I hope all you mothers are having a fabulous day.  I am looking forward to going over to my daughter's house this afternoon where my granddaughter is preparing a fabulous meal for us.

Your handmade flowers would fool Mark Cullen (Canada's foremost garden expert)! You just keep getting better and better and I thought you were terrific years ago.

Where are the links so I can print the chart information on the flowers?
