Happy Mothers Day!!!


Happy Mothers Day everyone!! I hope all you Mummys out there have got a nice relaxing day planned .. I've gotta go to work today - booooooo!! I am going over to Mums for brekkie though before work, then when I finish I will have the in-laws and grandparent-in laws at home - they are coming all the way down from Great Yarmouth so it will be lovely to see them briefly after work before they go home!! Speaking of the in-laws .... he is the card I made my mother in-law. I've had to wait untill now to post it because she would have seen it!!!


I have of course used another Lili of the Valley image - oooooh how I love their designs - luckily for me MIL is a fan too so here's hoping she likes it! I coloured the image with my copics, then found a sentiment from Craftwork Cards floating around in my stash that was cream - so i had to colour around the image to try and blend it in with the cream .. it looks a much better match in real life, the picture seems to be making it look a bit wishy washy and streaky - i assure you its not!
The papers are again from Wild Rose Studio, but this time the Kate Knight Floral Fantasy. Another new favourite of mine, full of bright pinks, turqouise and teals - gorgeous and a perfect match to the prima e-line flowers in fuschia and aqua. I cut the image using a Large Circle nestability and mounted it onto a Large Scallop Circle to frame it a little bit. To finish the card off I used my Fiskars scalloped border punch, added some roses to the centres of the prima flowers, a few gems to the corner and paper pierced along all the edges to add a bit of interest.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
