Happy Birthday Mom

Mom's Birthday....

Wishing you a very Happy Birthday Mom...!!!! 

Every year, 1st May has been very special to our family, it is  Mom's birthday and also the day we used get our final results from school. And of course celebrations, with home made (mom-made) cakes and all the special foods....

This is my first attempt of making a layout, had an album ready from ages but couldn't fill the pages, so here I go...

Choosing the photographs was a very tough job and after a lot of contemplating, I decided on these three beautiful moments from my life.

This photo was taken in Bapatla (Andhra Pradesh), on 1st May 1993

Here is a closer look...

Love you Mom, hope you like my surprise....!!!

Hello friends,

I just couldn't wait to create something the moment I got hold of this little girl 'brimming with love' from Penny Black.

These lovely hearts really stand out because of glossy accents...

The yellow buttons are hidden behind the pink ones.

I colored the little girl with copic markers, love her blush...

Finally embossed the flowers...

I am entering this card to the following challenges:

Hello Friends,

Looks like I have been bitten by the 'challenges' bug. Here's another card made for my friend's son for his 8th birthday and I have decided to enter this in a couple of challenges....

Challenges...

I was browsing the web and stumbled across many beautiful blogs and their challenges, so this is the first time I am going to try out a challenge.

PPS: http://ppsuae.blogspot.com/2012/04/challenge-3.html had a challenge about a particular card layout, and another site, http://pixieduststudiopixiechallenge.blogspot.com/2012/04/challenge-122-ribbons.html had challenged to use 'Ribbon' on the card.

So, here's what I came up with...

Hope you like my card.

Thanks for passing by....
