Mother's Day

My Mother passed away in 1991. I still miss her, but I have been blessed with an amazing sister. She is 11 years older than me, she is a 7 year breast cancer survivor and can run circles around me. She is the sweetest sister anyone could have.  So this card is for you Sis.

I am so in love with these digi's from Power Poppy.  The have for a limited time, Gerber daisies, tulips, gladiolas and peonies to purchase as digis and they each come with a sentiment.  I have all of them!

I used a Marianne die to cut the lattice and the base.  Then I used the outside frame of the die and cut the easel with acetate.  Glue does not look that great on acetate, so I cut a second die and glued it to other side of the acetate and flipped the digi, colored and glued it to the front digi. Now I wonder if the acetate was really necessary. The "Happy Mothers Day" is a Verve stamp which I cut with Spellbinder's Gold Labels 4.

I used a combination of Prisma markers and Copic, greens, orange, pink, red blue and purple. I do a lot of fussy cutting with my images. Between the scissors and dies, Hubby scolds me for tracking bits of paper through the house.  He has issues, but I love him.
