Mother's Day Cards - 4 of them

Hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day.  I sure did!

For the very first time ever, I actually sold some cards.  I put out a note here at work (I work with mostly guys) if they would like to purchase some Mother's Day cards from me.  Wahoo, I actually sold 4 cards.  So I thought I'd post them for you to see.  I hope you like them.
This first one was made for one of the guys that just had a baby girl for his wife's first Mother's Day.  He requested the card to be a baby style card from his daughter.  All the products used on this card are from Papertrey Ink except the ribbon, which is from my stash.
This card uses a butterfly stamp from Technique Tuesday.  The Patterned Paper is from Basic Grey.  Notice that I used Papertrey Inks, Boarders and Corners - Circle stamp as it fits perfectly on the Mat Stack Die.

Here is another card using all items from Papertrey Ink.
This card uses lots of Papertrey Ink and well.  Notice that I used the Boarders and Corners - Circle again on the Mat Die.  I also used the new FREE Anniversay gift stamp set from Papertrey Ink.

Thanks for taking a peek and I'd love to hear what you think
