Happy Mother's Day



Here's my mom's mother's day card. I used the colors in Lauren's inspiration challenge from yesterday and Jen's 5/2/09 Sketch again.

The main images are heat embossed with clear EP. A second image was watercolored, cut out, and popped up on dimensionals. Also up on dimensionals are the tawny and twilight deckled panels as well as the butterfly up in the upper left-hand corner. The pearls were colored with a BV04 Copic marker. The stamps, ribbon, and most papers are available at Stamper's Dream. Check the supply list below for product links.

Here's a close-up:



Here's the inside where I used my new JustRite Tiny Words set and more of the Wisteria DP:
