Today, I'm sharing the Mother's Day card I made for my Mum. I picked an old Lili of the Valley stamp called 'Teddy Bouquet', which, according to a search on my blog, I have not used in over ten years! I stamped it onto watercolour paper, added 'Mum' to the tag using a black gel pen, then coloured it using watercolour pencils. I paired it with papers from the 'Happy Watercolours' pad from The Works, distressing the edges and adding faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen, matting the layers onto some bright pink card, before adding it to a kraft card blank.
