Go over to the Lily Bee blog to see the sketch I made for this layout. You have until May 14th to enter and could win some Lily Bee goodies!
I added some extra detail by doing some hand stitching to the leaves, die cut frame, and envelope flap.
And I will say, I didn't think about doing a Mother's Day related layout until Linda from Lily Bee reminded us. I'm so glad I scrapped the layout of my Mother. But there was another layout and a slightly different sketch. Basically same sketch just a few differences that I'm sure you can see. And goes to show you how you really can make a sketch your own. Here's the other layout.
