My Sunday Shares - HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Happy Mother's Day to all the ladies out there! Today I have some really beautiful cards to share with you!

The first artist I want to introduce you to is Susie Lessard. I came across her work while I was looking for card ideas for one of my favorite Flourishes set, Apple of My Eye. This beautiful card just jumped off the page at me!

Isn't that gorgeous? I really love the bright colors, and the red gingham accent. I love gingham patterns, it just gives it that classic country feel which I adore. Susie did a fantastic job coloring her image too. Read more about this card in Susie's blog post.

While I was talking with Susie about sharing the beautiful apple card, she shared with me an absolutely breathtaking card that she had created in April for her Mother-In-Law's birthday. She also used Flourishes stamps for this one as well. She was kind enough to tell me that I could share it with you if I wanted and after looking at it, I said of course! Take a look at this gorgeous card...

Now is that gorgeous or what?!? Susie's Mother-In-Law is one lucky lady to have received such a beautiful gift! I LOVED the colors and the layers! If you want to read more about this gorgeous creation you can read about it in her blog post here. I hope that you enjoyed Susie's two cards and hope that you will take a moment to visit her blog, Summerwalk Designs . Not only are her cards beautiful but she has an amazing and inspirational blog as well!

This next card that I wanted to share is created by one of the most talented ladies that I have came across. If you spend anytime on Splitcoaststampers you have probably seen Birgit's work. Her splitcoast name is Biggan and she is the QUEEN when it comes to the Clean and Simple cards. I could literally put her whole gallery in my favorite's :) One of my many favorite cards of Birgit's is one that she created using the stamp called Mimosa Picnic from Bildmalarna. Take a look at this gorgeous card...

I love everything about this the colors, the flowers on the tree, and the way she created the road the little girl is riding on. Birgit has this amazing way of creating scenes that pack a bunch of beautiful details in a small area while keeping it clean and uncluttered looking. She amazes me every week and I just love seeing her creations. Please check out Birgit's amazing Splitcoaststampers gallery - Biggan and she also has a blog that you can check out too.

This next adorable card is created by Sheena. She uses a super cute Mo Manning stamp from Stamping Bella called Big Shoes.

I love this image and the saying too which is perfect for a Mother's Day card because I think all of us have someone that we look up too like that. I think Sheena did a fantastic job coloring her image to match her papers. You can read all about how Sheena created this adorable card on her blog, KanataNewf - Time Well Wasted.

The last card that I will share with you today is created by Karen Haman. She created a super cute card using my favorite stamp set from Paper Smooches called Forest Whimsy. The little gnome, Jerome is such a cutie! I love the colors that Karen chose and also the way she layered her pieces.

Isn't this adorable? I loved it! You can read all about how Karen created this super cute card on her blog, Carefree Creations.
