Sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow

Saturdays are always sensational because that's when I have a new card to show you for our  Sugar Creek Hollow challenge.  We have changed things a bit and we would love to see your vintage, shabby chic and primitive inspired designs.  This week's challenge is using the sketch shown below and an image of your choice.  I flexed my "vintage" fingers on this one using a sentiment from Our Daily Bread Designs "Grow In Grace":

Heartfelt Creations for Mothers Day

As promised, I have another Heartfelt Creations project to show you today.  I was thinking, what to get my mom for Mother's Day?  This is a difficult choice for someone in a nursing home, but what does she use all the time...tissues!  I decided to create this tissue box cover which she will always have close by and it "pretties" up a plain box of tissues:

For My Mom

Welcome to Heartfelt Creations Wednesday.  My creations for today and tomorrow are all dedicated to my mom.  She is one of my heroes.  Mom lived through the depression, served as a lieutenant in the Army Nurse Corp in World War II and is still going strong although in a nursing home.  I'd love to wish my mom and all the mothers reading my post a very happy Mother's Day this Sunday.   

For My Mom
