Happy Mother's Day!

I saw this card on Splitcoaststampers (link for instructions) a while back and knew it would make the perfect mother's day card for my mom.  I can remember her making quilts when I was younger and I still have one of them.  I wanted to use Spring colors and decided on lavender, green and purple.   I cut 29 squares with a 3/4" square nestability and lined them up using graph paper as a guide.  One I had the "quilt" completed, I put it on a layer of lavender paper and using 3d foamies, mounted it onto Vintage Cream cardstock.  I edged around the cream cardstock with a little bit of green (it looked a little too plain), added the sentiment and ribbon.  Happy Mother's Day Mom!
