PTI Princesses, challenge 2, card 1

Happy Mother's Day!  My family has kicked me out of the kitchen so I thought I would post my final Mother's Day card.  This is the one that I made for my Mother-in-Love.  

Michelle issued the second Papertrey Ink Princesses challenge to use a PTI set that we have but we haven't used.
Unfortunately/fortunately I have 4 sets that haven't seen ink yet.  

It was a lot of fun to finally ink up my Life set.  I love the soft look of these flowers.  I was inspired by a card I found in the PTI gallery by moxelliot .  I changed quite a few things but she got me headed in the right direction.  Thank you!

I used a Lavendar Moon background card and then layered it with Plum Pudding, Lemon Tart, and PTI White.  The flowers and the sentiment are from the "Life" stamp set and the "Happy Mother's Day" is from the Women of Life set.  The ribbons are Lavendar Moon and Lemon Tart. The scallop is made using a Fiskers scallop punch.  

I have challenged myself to use all of the uninked sets to complete this challenge.  1 down, three to go!
