For Mum

Hi all
 Here is  project i have made for a friend to give her mum on mothers day...My dear mum is no longer with us but i chose the verse as if it was for her....
The frame blank was from   cc-crafts  and i have removed the glass just to take a pic as it was too refelective.

I used papers from my stash at my friends request so it would match her mum's decor and i found the verse on the internet ...unfortunatley the author was anonymous.
the flowers, small butterflies  and swirls are sizzix dies and the lace is from my stash
the lge butterfly is a marianne d die and the fab gems are from meiflower crafts

 The STUNNING  heart shaped ribbon  and gems are from meiflower crafts..
The card  base was cut using grand nesties,the flowers are from mulberry crafts.
The beautiful die cut heart was a free bee from dies to die for when i placed and order so thanks guys for that.....it is lovely
.The pins are handmade by me and my tutorial for making them is here.
The card stays closed by tucking the front flap under the sentiment in the left corner[see final pic]
