To make this card I started with a background using the alcohol ink splatter (TH technique) and definitely a kaleidoscope of color. The irises (Sweet Stamps) were watercolor stamped with distress markers (ala Tim Holtz). The frame and roses are done using Cheery Lynn dies (miniature rose and Dutch doily rectangular frame). The roses got a little flattened using the scanner, but they really look like miniature roses when fluffed back up. The letters were cut using Tim's typeset die. I think any Mom would love to receive this card.
