I made this card for this week's Teapot challenge "Cutting Up" for a young mother who is battling Stage 4 cancer. I hope she gets showered with lots of uplifting cards.
The challenge from Lisa was to use scissors. I created a "mask" by stamping this image on scrap paper and fussy cutting around the flowers and little gal! Let me tell you...that was some careful cutting! LOL I then put my mask over my image which was stamped on white cs, sponging with grays through my brick stencil. I removed my mask and stencil and colored the image with markers. I stamped the sentiment and cut it out, also, and glued it onto my card along with a few sequins.
Thanks Pat for requesting cards for Katherine. Sending up prayers for her and her family.

Wow, I am super impressed with the fussy-cutting you did for the mask! Lots of detail in that image! I love how you've colored it, and that soft grey stenciled background is wonderful!

Adorable! I love the little bundle girl with the flower hat. She is just so sweet and your coloring is fabulous along with that awesome brick stenciling. And a master fussy cutter to boot!
