Mother's Day

Happy Tuesday one and all!!! This day has flown, can't believe it is after 5:00pm already!! Anyway, I had such high hopes for this card and I am sad to report that I am not as happy as I thought I would. When I had just the colored image I loved it!

I started with a card base of Elegant Eggplant, White and Lovely Lilac. My embossed layers are Swiss Dots and Birds and Swirls. My image is Sweet Pea by There She Goes and I stamped it in Tuxedo Black by Memento Ink onto White cardstock and colored with my copics. I think I made the mistake when I tried sponging the edges, I just don't like how it looks and once it was done that was it!

I added a light sponging to the two panels just to blend it a little. Also I stamped my sentiment before embossing the panel and the sentiment should have gone down further, again once it was done there was no going back! Thanks for looking!
