Last year, when I first saw the Timeless Portrait DSP, I wasn't going to buy it, because I thought "when/how will I ever use it"? But I had an epiphany after seeing the children's silhouettes, and I was determined to use it somehow for my Mother's Day card. It took a lot of thought and an entire evening (I'm an extremely slow papercrafter), but I finally came up with this!! The picture doesn't really do it justice, because the colors are much more vibrant than it shows. I'm very pleased with it and think my mother will be too. It represents all five of us kids -- can you figure out which one I am??

I *love* it! It's just so sweet! And yes, I think I have figured out which one you are. :-)
Thanks for sharing. I'm sure your mother will treasure this!

This is really great. I'm not a huge fan of that stamp set but I really think you used it well here! Great layout. Love that it's for your mother and represents her kids. I'm sure she'll just adore it!
Very nice colors and layering of the scallops.
