This is for my mom, Cleo (lovingzinnias), for Mother's Day. I've told her not to look at my gallery for a while, so that she won't see it.
I made the background with the embossed wax paper resist technique that was today's challenge. It's also a case of this lovely CARD by cmf1216.
She likes pearls, ribbon, ovals, and these colors...so I think she'll like this one. Hope you do to...TFL! Oh, and did I mention....the only reason I have this stamp set is because she bought it for me? That's my wonderful mom for you!

Wow! This card is absolutely gorgeous! I love the colors and the embossed floral spray. The sketch is great and I love the pearls and the hardware too.

I was going to case a card from your gallery today and realized that I missed this posting. What a BEAUTIFUL card for such a wonderful person. I just love all the dimensions, the flowers really pop. You did it again! Great card, Leisa.

Leisa, I keep thinking, it can't get any prettier, but somehow you always manage to top the last one...I love everything about this card. Of course, the pearls, All the cut outs, and I have got to know how to do that wax paper resist. It is beautiful. This picture doesn't do it justice. It is absolutely gorgeous. I can't stop looking at it. Thank You so much for doing so much.
