Wonderful Mum

As it was Mothering Sunday yesterday, I thought I ought to get my act together.  Although I confess, I had already bought cards for our mums....I know - naughty me !!! ..... but I also had a craft fair on Saturday and thought I ought to add a few to my eclectic mix of altered art and home decor goodies for sale.

I have been so busy lately, so I apologise that this is not a tutorial style blog, but more of a revisiting of the collage blogs from a few weeks ago.

The papers and stamps used are from Lili of the Valley.  I simply mixed and overlapped papers , some were matted onto complimentary card, along with die cuts for the sign and bracket in the same card.  I decided to stick to a purple and aqua colour palette, and when I came to  colouring my stamped image, I used ProMarkers that fitted within this range.  A few pearls and a little chiffon organza and Voila - a simple but stunning card (even if I do say so myself), fit for any mum, who of course is wonderful and very deserving of being spoiled

Hopefully I will have an Easter card to show next week....and I hate to mention it, but I already have Christmas in mind.
