Sukklersot and Sweet 'n Sassy Sketch Challenge

I'm posting twice this morning for two different sketch challenges, both sponsored by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. If you missed the first post, please scroll down to next post.  Both cards are done without my usual stitching. You can't imagine how difficult this was for me. I'm just so addictied to hand stitching on my cards.

This sketch challenge is from the Sukkersot blog site in Norway. What a fantastic group of talented DT member there. You really need to hop on over and play along.

The Image used is the Birth Month January Carnation designed by the ever talented Leah Cornelius. I have a passion for creating with flowers, as you can probably tell by now.  The Happy Mother's Day is from the Digi Stamp set called "Special Lady".  The cardnation was colored in with Copic Markers.

The Designer papers and cardstock is from the "That's Amore" paper pack from Close to My Heart.

The swirly borders are from "Love Letter" Rub ons also from CTMH.
