So a Happy Mothers Day to all mums and nans in the UK today :)
Todays card is again using on of my favourite LOTV stamps - Dandelion Clock. There is just something about this image that captivates me and keeps me wanting to get it out time after time.
I used K&Co papers and followed the fab sketch over on Simon Says Stamp. I distressed, hand-stitched and beaded the papers, corners and image.
The flower is K&Co (with added bling and distressing), and the gems in her hair are tiny clear acrylic dots.......
.........and made the dragonfly dangly out of jewellery findings - simples :)

Beautifull card, I love that image and how you have coloured her and all your lovelly added elements.
I ended up buying Mother's Day cards, started making one on Friday and was going to finish off yesterday and woke up Saturday morning having slept funny, I think, and now have pain in my shoulder and neck and can't move very well at all, this is the first time since Friday I have sat in front of the pc, am well miffed I can tell you although it has meant that I was able to sit with my feet up all morning and watch Barbara Gray on Create and Craft :)
Anyway, am going to have a go now at a bit of card making and see what challenges I can do and I will do your tagging hehe :) xx
