Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!
Today I want to share the last Mother's Day card I made this year and it may be one of my favorites. I love the blue monochrome and the homey feel of the shelf. This would have been happy living in my mom's house and she would have loved it, especially all the different flowers in pots and baskets. :-D
This was a clip art image which I printed in grayscale, then colored with pale blue Copic markers. I fussy cut the image and ran it through my Cuttlebug using my 'Linen' EF. The sentiment was printed and cut with an Avery Elle die. I added half inch wide, sheer ribbon and used it to also tie a triple loop bow using my bow maker. The background dp came from a DCWV stack.
Challenges:

Happy Crafting. NanaConnie

Wow, that is really brilliant NC! I love the blue tone over the image and the idea with the linen folder over it really stands out beautifully! The ribbon adds such a soft feel to the design too!
OMGosh your card is beautiful!! I love the blue tones. Thanks for joining the Festive Friday challenge.
My mother had loads of Blue Willow China and this reminds me of those beautiful pieces in her China Cabinet, which now live in mine. Great card Connie, Thanks for joining us at the Paper Funday Challenge and we hope you'll share again soon.
