Mother's Day

This weeks Created By Hand Challenge, and Melange Team challange were both to do something about mothers... so since I planned to make my mom a card, I thought I would go ahead and use it for the challenge, too!http://createdbyhandchallenge.wordpress.com/

I hope my mom does not pick this week to visit my blog, or it will spoil it! I have made a lot of cards digitally, but besides the construction paper type I made as a kid, I think this is the first one I made by hand. Of course I did print out the elements, thanks to some of the blogs I follow that offer free graphics. I don't remember which blogs, but I got the roses and the music background from them, so thank you!

I think she will like it!
Thanks for visiting my blog!

Peace & Love-

  1. I didn't comment on the former posts because I have your wonderful cards with the paintings! But I had to let you know that your mom is going to cry (HAPPY TEARS) when you give her this! It's stunning and touching! GOOD GRIEF, if Leah ever gave me anything this sentimental and artistic, I could die happy. It's beautiful, Risa! She'll LOVE it!
