It's Lorraine's turn to host the challenge at Digital Tuesday this week and she has chose "A card for Mum" as the challenge. This could be a Mother's Day card or a Birthday card for a Mum or anything else that is for a Mum.
As my own Mum died 20 years ago, I decided to make a card for my MIL.
This is not my normal style of card but she likes flowers, so I think she will like this.
I must apologise yet again for the poor photo! I took it last night adn there was just no light at all. I can't wait for Spring to come!!
I followed the sketch over at Charisma Cardz for this one.
The carnation image is one of the new releases from Fred She Said which I have coloured with my pencils and oms and then added some glitter crystal laquer to all the petals so it is raised and shimmery.
The papers are K&Co, they are from different collections but I think they go well together.
I used scraps of K&Co paper to punch some flowers using a Dovecraft punch and a tiny flower punch that I have had in my stash forever, but I have no idea who makes it. Pearls are from my stash and gems are My Minds Eye. The sentiment is just done in Word, but I later remebered that FSS has a Mother's Day sentiment that is much prettier than this, so I think I will change that.
I have lots to do today so better get cracking!
Thanks for stoppin by.
