Mother’s Day Easel Card

Here’s a Mother’s Day card I made  for the craft fair yesterday. I think the Queen for a Day sentiment is perfect for Mother’s Day and the teeny crown from the sale-a-bration set works well with it (especially blinged up with some of our super shiny rhinestones). Don’t you just love how our sets fit together?
