Happy Mother's day



Sorry about the long time no post....man things have been hectic around here! I won't bore you with the details.....but my husband has been away for 10 days and let's just say I'm starting to become unglued....

Anyways, I love Lauren Meader's Timeless Templates....so I tried another one-this one is the Keep {sake}. I just love this box it's so fun and versatile!
I made this box for my Oma who is visiting this weekend for Mother's day.  I plan to buy some little chocolates to put in the box. :o)

The paper is Nana's Nursery; which I'm sure everyone can tell is my FAVORITE right now. 
The ribbon is SU!
The flower images and the sentiment on the tag are CTMH-Simple Beauty
The tag is CM-I used an EK success border punch to trim it a bit 

I made the frame for the window with my nesties-one rectangle inside of the scallop rectangle-I cut it at the same time...and was very impressed that it worked!
I used some overhead transparency "paper" for the window. 

The button is My Mind's Eye

Thanks for looking-have a great day!
