Welcome to today's post featuring a Mother's Day card and a lot of retired/retiring products. Sometimes I find myself needing to use up all the old things in my stash and make it look just as fresh as when I first used them. Today's card uses the following retired or retiring products: Strawberry Slush card stock and ink, Celebrate Today stamp set, Crazy About you stamp set, Tranquil Tulips stamp set and Sweet Sugarplum ink. The other colors of inks used were Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz. I couldn't think of a way to pop up the stems so I popped up the flowers instead and like how it all came together. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think.
