For a Special Mother with Stripes :)

Couldn't resist posting this adorable picture of "a special mother with stripes".  Awwww...

Hi, Friends.....

What I really meant in the title to this blog post was that I made this card for a special mother and that the card has a striped background.....but "for a special mother with stripes" is the first thing that came out! :)

I usually use this stamp for Mother's Day cards, but my dear mother-in-law had an alarming health scare this last week. I wanted to send a pretty mom card to her and thought this would fit the occasion. I love this older DCWV Chateau Lavender stack that I used here.

Products used include:
Mom stamp from my stash
Versafine ink in Sepia Brown
Verve - Sprightly Sprigs die set (discontinued)
DCWV Chateau Lavender stack
Distress Ink in Walnut Stain
Pretty lace ribbon from my stash
Core'dinations Kraft cardstock

Hope you like my card and that my mom-in-law will, too. We are all so thankful that she is okay. She's in her mid-80s and needs to start acting her age!!! lol.... <3 <3 <3 Thank you for stopping by today!
