Mother's Day.



IMG_8607

Hello, folks! Long time, no see!

I've been really bad about blogging, but I have been busy crafting away on future projects.

This week, aside from the full time job and DT committments, I've attended a recognition reception at work, renewed my CPR certification, & attended a Mother's Day breakfast. Busy week, but there were some great moments! :). I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend too!

So I usually try to reserve Saturdays for Time for Tea Designs. This Girl on Bench digi stamp is so lovely and versatile. Another DT member, Anita, put her on grass. I put her on a park walkway. I got to practice drawing based on dimensions and perspectives. This takes me back to my art classes back in high school and college. I should've made the walkway a bit bigger though :).

The clouds are made by cutting a cloud stencil on just your basic white cardstock. I used some metallic pigments on a piece of napkin (cotton balls work too), and just rubbed the edges of the stencil out. And for the grass, I used just basic flicking motions with my green Copics.

I think I will be giving this card away to my sister for Mother's Day. The floral designs are perfect for it!

Speaking of Mother's Day, I wish you all a lovely one tomorrow! We'll be celebrating at my mom's with a nice brunch and my hubby said he'll let me sleep in again (just like today!). I'm thanking God for all my blessings, big and small!
