Happy Birthday Mum!

Evening all! Thanks for your kind words on yesterdays card - I really do appreciate it! Have you had a good day? Mine's been good - I had a good run then took mum and dad to The Fenwick for lunch. It was lovely - my dad was quite amusing - he had 3 half pints of beer - I think he was a bit tipsy! He did make me and mum chuckle! Then I took them to a garden centre - they bought some pots and I bought an obelisk and a clematis - I'm hoping it will all look good. It was quite interesting trying to get it all into the car! lol!!!!

I want to show you the card I made for my mum today - its the brushos again - and paperartsy stamps. I do like this - the sentiment is chocolate baroque. I used versa mark and the white opaque wow powders to stamp the image - this was then heat set.


I used frantage to finish off too.


Here's a closer look.


I 3d'd the flowers to add a little more texture to the card.

I would like to enter this card into craftstamper take-it-make-it-challenge-june

Hope you have a great day tomorrow - big hugs rachel x
