Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there, I hope you're having a wonderful, pampered and relaxed day.

I made this card for a commission for an old school chum (Hi Mike!) and decided to use the Whiff of Joy Challenge #22 rules  which are to use green, to kill two birds with one stone.

Image: Willow with Cookies from WoJ, coloured with promarkers and white gelly roll for highlights

Papers are all from the new Daisy & Dandelion A5 paper pack, the papers were inked with papermania green ink pad, green core'dinations card for matting and layering.

Dovecraft daisy grosgrain ribbon and papermania clear gems

The flower inside was punched with Woodware Daisy punches from the Daisy & Dandelion papers

The verse inside reads:

Here's wish you a Mother's Day,

That's filled with every pleasure,

And a future that's as happy,

As the memories you treasure.
