A really quick post tonight since it's very late and I have to get to bed.
I want to dedicate today's card to my mother-in-law, who's been gone several years now. I loved her dearly, as much as my own mother, and since she survived my mother by many years, she became the only mom I had. I miss them both.
My MIL loved bird houses and she would have adored this card. The image is by Beccy's Place.
Quick details about the card: lace from my stash, ribbon from one of the ribbon sites, bow is one of those I make and keep in my stash, hearts are brads, and the 'dots' beside them are tiny green half-pearls.

I based my design on the sketch from Just Add Ink.

I'm sure she would love it and I, too, love it. The lace backing that pretty bird house just adds that something special to it. Enjoy your day. Hope you got a good night's sleep.
Such a lovely tribute to both your mom and your MIL, Connie. How blessed they must have been with you in their lives as well. Your card is really pretty in the green tones, and such pretty roses, too. It's a wonderful design, Connie! hugs, de

Such a beautiful tribute! Your card is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing with us at The House that Stamps Built!
Oooh, love this one too, what a great image! :)
I agree NC, I'm sure your Mother-in-law would have loved the card you made in memory of her, it's obvious that you put a lot of time and thought into it. I love the mostly green colour scheme and I think the lace in the background is a lovely, feminine touch. It's truly a beautiful tribute.
Cheers,
Beccy
