FMS #185, Card Concept #34 and ATSM #145

It seems like forever since I've made and posted a card.  I have one today that's for three challenges.  I used the sketch from Freshly Made to make a Mother's Day card (Addicted to Stamps - holiday) using the colors from The Card Concept,


The background paper is from PTI's Beautiful Brushstroke kit, cut with SSS stitched rectangles, as is the white layer.  The roses and sentiment are from SSS's Best Mom Ever.  Using both Worn Lipstick DI and VersaMark, I stamped and clear embossed the flowers on watercolor paper, then water-colored them with the DI.  I did the same for the leaves in Peeled Paint. I also used Worn Lipstick to color my banner after clear embossing PTI's Polka Dot Basics.  A vellum banner was added and the sentiment was stamped in HA Charcoal.

Thank for stopping by.  Your visits and comments are truly appreciated.

I agree with Michele: the flowers are ever so pretty and the blue-brush-stroked background really makes them shine. Gorgeous!
