Our Featured Stamper, Lynda'sJust Saying Hello inspired this Mother's Day card for our DD. I went to her Blog to get the instructions for the technique she used, because I really liked her background. She watercolored the flowers with inks, and then put water on the paper then dropped drops of ink on the paper and pushed around with the brush. So that is what I did, too. I used somewhat the same colors, but different sentiment and image. I liked her frame, but didn't have stitched rectangles, so I paper pierced a frame I made by using two
Spellbinder A-2 dies together. Thank you Lynda for your wonderful inspiration!
This is also for May Flowers CAS, and for our Alphabet Challenge for M for Mother's Day card and for this week's Teapot Challenge to make a Mother's Day Card. This is special to tell our DD what a special Mom we think she is. And she is!
Thank you for looking.

Another lovely missed in the gallery during my surgery hiatus! This is really pretty, Sharon. Love your background and that delicate blossom tree. Your pierced frame is so well done...thought it was a ready-made die!
