Hi!This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
Okay, Speedy the Cat is asleep under my computer desk, and he did NOT insist that I continue to stamp today...I, well, and procrastinating....I have TONS of work to do, and I'm not ready to tackle it, quite yet...It's mostly paper work. I have a quasi idea as to it's location, but I have yet to find it. I also have to vacuum, do dishes, clean the bathroom, Cat potty duty, wash the 3 dogs, and finish 3 swaps! Wow...I think I need to make another challenge card! LOL!
When I saw this sentiment from Treehouse Stamps, I got really weepy. It is just PERFECT for my mother. She is my best FEMALE friend. My best childhood friend was killed by a drunk driver. I was in the car, beside her....My best college friend was killed by a drunk driver. And, my best friend, for 10 years was, I found out later, my ex's mistress! OMGosh! Right??? So, to be honest, my best FEMALE friend is my mother! She's honest, kind, strong, and when needed, very strict.And...she never liked my ex or his mistress! LOL! (Oh, my husband is my BEST FRIEND.)
The image was stamped in Noir Black onto white and cut out with a Nestie. I had this great flocked moss colored paper and decided it was a good compliment to the purple and gold.

I think you have a most beautiful relationship with your mom and I'm glad this stamp helps express that on this fabulous card.

I love those colours - reminding me still of the sweet-peas.
Bit of procrastinating going on here too - should be practicing the piano instead of commenting.
