Card by Savannah O’Gwynn

Wow, isn’t this just the most darling card ever!?! Savannah has poured out her best with this teacup card! She has used  Melisa Waldorf’s FREE Teacup Card Template for the colorful stacked teacups. Then she added a spoonful of sugar sweet sentiment from NinaB Designs Sweet Silhouettes and topped it off with the joyful butterflies from NinaB Designs Fairy Wishes art stamp set. This card would delight a mother’s heart to overflow with happiness, (and would most likely end up displayed on her shelf with her most precious treasures)! :0)

Savor more tasty ideas by Savannah on her blog, “Savannah Land 2″!

May your day be sweet and full of love,
