Using Retiring Products on a Mother's Day card

Hello and thank you for joining me for a card project today. I will be sharing another Mother's Day card sample with you where I use up some of the products that will be retiring from the Stampin' Up Annual Catalog at the end of May. The focal image from Pictogram Punches stamp set, the flower punch, the beautiful ribbon, lovely ink colors and the gorgeous Designer paper along with the Mossy Meadow card stock will all be gone soon so I thought I'd use them on this project. You can head to www.http://creativemeasures.stampinup.net to grab these items before they're gone. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think.
