Mother's Day Card

Here is a card I made my mother for Mothers Day. This card was inspired by two things, my mom and the challenge over at I am Roses. I love the color teal, so when I saw the challenge so many ideas just started floating in my head. I had recently purchased the Rose stamp from LaBlanche stamps and had not had a chance to play with it.

For the card, I used Webster's pages Vintage Vogue Collection, as it had the perfect color scheme of teals and pale pinks/ salmon. I then took a doily and several smaller I Am Roses flower and colored them using a mix of teal and pale pink shimmer sprays. Since I wanted more definition around the doily, I then went back with a darker teal color for the edge. I find that this technique allows for the the stamped image to pop more. I colored the stamped image with pearlescent chalk colors, by Pebbles. Lastly, I framed the doily with Recollections strand pearls.

Enjoy and be inspired.
