New release for Mother's Day

Today at Spesch stamps - Trace is releasing THIS stamp. Christina has designed the best Mothers Day image but you can also use this one for a new baby card as well - which is what I decided to do as some friends just had another baby a bit over a week ago. Here is the card I made....

The colours I used are:
mum's skin: E000, 00, dress: B00, 02, 05, Baby skin: R000, 00, 20, baby's wrap: R81, 83

Pop on over to Spesch stamps and see the wonderful creations the DT have come up with!!

Happy Mother's Day!!

I made this card for my Mum for Mother's day.... I was going to use one of the stamps I had but then decided to make it a bit more personal and so:

I drew each of the 4 girls in my family!!
I drew us each doing something that we did as kids (+/or do now),
photographed the drawings and then played around in photoshop elements editing them... printed them and coloured them...
and added them along with some CS, stickers and gel pen additions to the card....
This was a long process but I was quite pleased with the end result!!

HAPPY Mother's day MUM! I am thankful for your many years of love and sacrifice... I think you did a wonderful job bringing up 4 girls!!
