Mother's Day Card

I've been wanting to make a card that includes the gazebo from the FRESHLY PICKED cartridge.  I thought is would be a great beginning to a Mother's Day card.
I used my Gypsy to do the welding so I could create this as a shape card.  I cut the word Mom from the STORYBOOK cartridge.  
Because this is a shape card, I wanted the inside and back to also be a part of the design and very pretty.

Here is the inside of the card.  I decided not to do a stamped sentiment because I will be writing a personal message to my mom.  
And here is the back of the card.  
My mom will love this card.  I hope you all have a very happy Mother's Day!

    charlotte, i am glad you had no damages. but my heart cries for the others too. it is so sad. so many disasters and so many lives lost. :(
    on the other hand your card is STUNNING! love every detail about it. wow! the more i look at it the more i love it :)
    i was also reading about ruby. i can see the fear and sadness in her first photos. i can't imagine what she has been trough and i am so happy you are rescuing her to give her the life she deserves. my lulu is a pug. i also rescued her and she was so so scared of everything the first year she was with us. she was infested with fleas, just had given birth, had teeth missing, one of her eyes look a bit weird. NOW, she is a PRINCESS! we love her so much and she knows now we won't hurt her so she turned into a diva who does not listen to us anymore, lol.
    sorry for the long post here but wanted to tell you how i feel. your other two doggies are so cute too.
    big hug and many blessings to all.
