I kept the overall layout and the floral fence theme but changed the colors, the sentiment, the DSP, and the ribbon.
I used Blackberry Bliss, Very Vanilla, Daffodil Delight, Mossy Meadow, and Sahara Sand. The sentiment comes from the April 2016 Paper Pumpkin Kit. Because the DSP Karen used is retired, I substituted the gingham pattern from the Farmer's Market DSP. It appears to be the same pattern but with different colors.
I also removed the lacy butterfly from the Butterfly Basics stamp set. It was placed on the ribbon toward the right side. I may end up adding the butterfly. I haven't decided. What do you think?
To secure the Daffodil Delight cotton ribbon, I used glue dots. I placed a glue dot on each end, one under the faux bow knot, and one towards the right side. That way, the ribbon stayed flat after the faux bow was tied.

There were no measurements listed for this card. Some of the measurements were easy to decipher. However, the DSP strip at the bottom was a little tricky. If I were to make this card again, I would increase the DSP strip to 3-3/4" x 1-1/2" and decrease the 2nd Mat to 3-3/4" x 3-1/2".
I hope my mom likes this card and knows how special and loved she is!
Thanks for stopping by!
