I love your shades of blues and browns you used. this is a beautiful card! How wonderful that you included 42000 hugs!
That gets you in the front door, don't you know? So neat that you did the center step card. I want to try that.

This is incredibly cute. I think blues and browns are pretty together and that little bear is adorable. What mom would not love an adorable, hand-made, center step card with 42,000 hugs and the good taste not mention of her age trying to get the numbers in there!?

Wendy, this is so beautiful. I love how you agonized over the colors so this would be perfect for your mother - and that paper is so darling. The best part is your sentiment - what a great sentiment. I don't have time to look at any more of your cards this morning, but I am coming back tonight to see more. Hugz!!!
