Mother's Day Cards

I really liked the simplicity of the sketch from our challenge on  Paper Crafting Divas and knew it would be perfect for my Mothers Day cards.  
Here is the sketch:




And here are the two cards I created, one for my mother and one for my MIL.  
Here's the details:
Sentiment:  found online, typed and printed onto white card stock

Papers:  Basic Gray from my scrap basket

Extras:  silk flowers, rhinestones,stickles, and ink

I REALLY like how they both came out...the yellow roses are for my mother - her favorite and the pink is for my MIL.

Thanks for looking! 
 Marie
