Mums card

Hello Lovelies! How are you? I'm doing okay and feeling happy! Hope you are too and if not sending you hugs! I've been for a run today and also to coffee pot plus the dentist! Can't be bad! PTA meeting tonight too! Its going to be a busy week ahead too.

I wanted to share the card I made for my mum with you today. Its another one using the Chocolate Baroque stamp for february in their year of stamping. I chose the colour orange as its mums favourite:



I embossed the card in the background and coloured with distress stain - spiced marmalade.  The tulips were coloured with spectrum noir pencils - here's a close up:


I have used a sentiment on this so would like to enter this into the Spectrum Noir challenge this month (https://www.facebook.com/SpectrumNoir/app_600469859988196). Also I would like to enter it into the craftstamper take-it-make-it-challenge-march

Hope you have a good day tomorrow and thanks for any comments you choose to leave!

Big hugs

Rachel x
