In the Midwest, we do not have flowers until Mother's Day, and once the first frost sets in- no more flowers until the following year. So, we enjoy our flowers so much!
I made a background using various inks, then stamped the background stamp over the back using Paprika ink. The floral image is stamped and embossed with Black Detail EP, then water colored. Happy Birthday is also embossed. Pearls and lace finish off the card- this was for my Mom's 86th Birthday : )
