          Pin It
  Yay I had such a wonderful surprise when I opened my messages  last week ! I had a invite from Miss.Emma over at My Creative Time  asking me if I would like to be a Guest Designer ? Well as I sure you would guess ,after My Heart "FELL" to the floor with "EXCITEMENT" I Immediately  emailed Miss.Emma back with an YES ! What an honor ! Thank you so much Emma for thinking of me and for allowing me to be a Guest Designer what a WONDERFUL SURPRISE  !!
      For those of you that know or don't know Emma came out with her own line of Wonderful Stamps a few months back ! If you love Peachy Keen Stamps then you are in for a treat ,because Emma's Stamps are made from the same company ! Yep you even get the Peachy Sweetness Scent Yummy ! To date Emma has 16 wonderful stamps Released and  a few more coming out this Friday ! She has everything from Baby ,Mother,Easter,Boys ,Scrapbooking and much more ! Be sure to check them all out Here is a link to her store ! Be prepared ,you are going to want them all ,they are not only wonderfully written but they are also wonderfully priced ! So be sure once you leave here to go over and check out all her goodies you wont be sorry !

 Emma asked me to use her Stamp Set Called  So Grateful for You ~! And as soon I saw the Sentiments I knew exactly what I wanted to make ! She also asked for me to use Purple and Green and what ever other colors I would like ! So I choose Stampin Ups Rich Razzelberry,Old Olive ,Whisper White and Perfect Plum .

          I made a perfect card for my Mom ! My Mom is my rock she is always there no matter what ! I can call her when I am sick and she is right there to get me well ! I am so blessed to have my Mom to be there for me and so I made this card for her ,for Mothers Day ! This is a recent photo of us when we took the kiddos to Mardi Gras !

    Here is her card ! I cant wait to give it to her ! She loves cards so I know this will mean a lot to her ! That is one thing you can expect from my Mom on your Birthday she is going to have you a card that means something special from her !

This card says it all ! I am so Grateful for my Mom ! 

And this is the inside ! I have had several surgeries over the last few years, my Mom came over and helped me each and everyday ! Recently she went with me to the Emergency Room and sat there all night with me until we found out what was going on ! So Emma's Stamp says a perfect saying for my Mom ! Thank you  for taking care of me "PERFECT"  I have a wonderful Mom ! I love her so much and I am so blessed to call her My Mom ! 

So thank you so much for sharing this Special Day to Honor  My Mom Emma ! 

          

My 39 and Glamorous Blog Hop ~!

         Hi and Welcome to My 39 & Glamorous Blog Hop ! Hosted By Bonnie @ A Scrap Above !

Click here to start at the beginning !  The full hop list will also be at the bottom of this post in case you loose your way ! 


      Bonnie said she wanted different cards and items made, she suggested colors as well as items she would like to see incorporated ! Purple, Black, Hot Pink, White, Skulls, Vintage looking Keys, Butterflies, Distressed/Grunge Look. Ribbon , Bling ! So I got the idea she is kinda into a little Gothic / Distressed kinda mood so I went for more of the Gothic look ! 

  I choose Black ,Hot Pink and Skulls ! So here you go Bonnie I hope this fits what you were looking for !
      I think she came out super cute ! I used some ribbon in my stash that reminded me of Barbwire to make her whole Gothic Rocker look complete ! 

If you look closely you can see a Skull on her dress ! 

I think this would even make a wonderful Teen Birthday card also !
