We're over this week's hump and much closer to hippity hoppity Easter! But after Easter comes Mother's Day and that's the type of card I'm showing off today.
Now... for those of you wondering how many mothers I have - no, I was not adopted by a tribe of roving gypsy women and I did not grow up on a polygamous commune. I sell my cards at craft fairs and mother's day cards always fly off the shelves during this time of year.
This particular card is inspired by the newest Fusion Card Challenge.
I loved the big ol' bouquet of roses, and also chose to incorporate the sketch. If you haven't played along at Fusion, it's super duper easy! You can choose either the sketch, or the card, OR both and create a fusion!
My card was pretty easy peasy to put together. I stamped a back panel using a floral burst from Unity and then stamped my focal panel once with the same design.
I watercolored my flowers with a combo of Distress Oxide inks and Distress Inks.
To complete the look, I stamped a snarky sentiment from my brand new Sweet and Sassy Mom set, which will be released by STAMPlorations in the next couple of weeks!
Taaaadaaaa!
I hope you'll hop over to Fusion and play along!
I was inspired to play along in:
