I used the awesome Mama Whale digital stamp from Meljen's Designs for this card. I thought it would be the perfect image for a Mother's Day card for my mother. I colored the image with Prismacolor Pencils. I used stamps from My Thoughts Exactly Under The Sea (You're Whale-y Great), StudioG (Arrow), Unknown (Brackets) and Hero Arts PolyClear (Happy Mother's Day). I added the paper flowers. I added gems to the arrow. This is all cardstock paper and I sewed them to add to the card. I love the look of sewing on cards! I decorated the inside of the card as well and that's it.
I hope you all have a wonderful rest of your week! This week has been really busy, but much better than last week. And it's almost over. I wish our weekends were a little bit longer! LOL I think I need to take a couple of days off.. just to take some time off! Hmmm.. that sounds good hehehe Alright... I'm off :) Have a happy day!!!
