Birthday Card......check....




The color challenge at Pals Papers Arts this week combined with the sketch challenge at Stamping411 led to this birthday card for my mother. I double stamped the flower from Of the Earth and used a sentiment from Well Scripted. That's one more item checked off my to-do list as we count down to her 85th birthday celebration - just four weeks away!

I opened your post and here was my reaction - "oooh, pretty!"
This is such a beautiful card, it's CAS, but has fabulous details that don't overwhelm the design. Just a great card! I know your Mom will love it! Thanks for sharing it with the 411!

Hi Linda,
I love this card! I love water coloring anyway, so this card had a shoe in, but I love your color choices. Great job!
