Mother's Day Card

I'm fortunate enough to have my mum visiting me for a couple of weeks.  This means that we will spend Mother's Day together.  Below is the card I made for her. I wanted to keep it fairly simple and I had seen this simple layout done by my friend Philippa Barr. It's not an exact CASE of her work, more I was inspired by what she had done.  This is also my first real attempt at colouring in using the new water colour crayons I got last month.

2010 Card a Day Challenge - Card #61

Following on from my previous post, below is another card that I've made from the patterned paper that I purchased from the Canberra Craft Fair last year.  The card layout is a CASE, but I have changed the sentiment stamp and the colour of the cardstock used.

2010 Card a Day Challenge - Cards #57 - #60

At the Canberra Craft Fair in August last year, I purchased some cheap pretty patterned paper.  Unfortunately the craft stall that I purchased the paper from did not have instructions on the cards that they had made with this paper.  However, they were kind enough to allow me to take photos of the cards.  Over the last couple of days I've made the follow two designs, which are a CASE from this craft stall.  The first patterned paper I was able to make three cards, all in various sizes and the second patterned paper I made six cards, all of the same.  Both these cards are of a style that I would not normally do. However, I really like the black, red and white one, so may look at making that again, but next time using a flourish stamp to create the same effect.  I'm happy with both card designs.
