Someone very special

 My mom's birthday was today; this is the card I made for her.  Red is her favorite color so of course, I had to stamp some red(ish) flowers and add some red ribbon.

I made a fun gate fold card/gift card holder:


I die cut slots to hold the gift card, and then stamped the sentiment so it would be hidden until the gift card is removed.  Now you see it . . .
 . . . now you don't!


Supplies:
Stamps: Altenew "Flower Arrangement"; Verve "Better Together" sentiment; Mama Elephant "Inside Birthday Sentiments"
Dies: Altenew "Flower Arrangement" and "Crystal Frames"; Papertrey Ink "Filigree" border die

Challenges:













Scor-pal #80--anything goes with the optional twist: April showers or Fool us!  (I just went with the anything goes option)
Crafty Creations #420--anything goes
Creative Moments #212--anything goes
Aud Sentiments #272--anything goes
Cardz TV #138--anything goes
Cuttlebug Mania--gift card holder
Try Stampin' on Tuesday #502--more than one fold
