Mother's Day Birthday

     Every few years, my friend's birthday falls on Mother's Day and I try to make sure she gets a card from me celebrating both of those events.  On this card, I used one of my new LOTV stamps.  Remember a week or so ago, I told you I'd ordered some new stamps from Lily of the Valley?  I also promised that they weren't going to sit in a drawer, unused for 3 years, like the ones I had purchased before.  lol  Keeping that promise, I used this stamp the same day it arrived.

     This card is my DT card for the new challenge starting today in the Twisted Thursday challenge over at the Outlawz.  Our theme is always "Anything Goes" but we always have an optional twist if you want to use it.  The last Thursday of the month, even the twist is "Anything Goes" so this week you can do anything you like and still do two entries.  :-D

     I used watercolors, ProMarkers, and gel inks on the image and then used dies from Spellbinders to cut the image and the mat.  The card base layer is embossed with my "Linen" folder for some texture.  I added sparkly twine to one corner, and layered a strip of dp from DCWV behind the image, then did the sentiment using white ink.  The three little pearl heart buttons were in my stash.  I inked the edges of the card with distress inks.
