Mother's Day Card!

Good Morning All, yes it's Monday again, doesn't it come around all too quickly.  I hope you all had a great weekend.

I'm early today with this post, I felt I had to get going  as I've been a wake since 2.20am and I now feel as if I've got a hangover and now feel the desperate need to sleep, but hey oh, it's time to get going for work.  It's my turn to be doing the cooking at the project and each time it is I've got a full fortnight of stress.  It's the main part of my job I hate.  Anyway onward and upward as they say.

My card today is one I've been asked to make for Mother's Day;
Another wonderful stamp from LOTV and coloured with Promarkers, Co-oridination cream card and First Edition Sweet Owl paper, Spellbinder Floral Oval dies, Corners also Spellbinders from Frosty Forms, Lace and pearls from The Ribbon Girl, WO roses and to finish some stickles for a bit of sparkle.

As my colours are pink and cream, I would like to enter this card into,

and  because there's pearls also http://liliofthevalleythursdaychallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/pearls.html

Have a good day Everyone,
Kate x

Good evening Kate
There is a Tutorial for that Pleated Ribbon Technique on the Meiflower website.
I saw it Hobbycraft Glasgow last year, quite easy once you get the rhythm of it.
Hope you managed to get a better sleep last night and have a good one tonight.
Hugs
