To Mom from Ann

I got a card in the mail today from Cathy Yamashita.....it was just lovely.  AND since I hadn't made my card for my mother yet, I used her idea and made this card!  The stamps are from Hero Arts and Stamp Camp.  The technique is Masked Spellbinders from the April 2010 newsletter.  It is such an easy technique.  Give it a whirl today!  May be inspired as I was!


Now for the inside.  Found the stamp I wanted, inked it up, stamped it and drat!, I had a smudge at the end of the word 'day'.  So.......what to do......cover it up!!  I drew the rose bud, colored it in and now no one but you and me will know!

Oh, Ann, you are so sweet. What a wonderful compliment. I do have to say, your card is much lovlier and more colorful than mine! And your hand-drawn rose is perfect.
