This card is for a very special mom, who is a mom to many and always has a ready hug. Violet is the mom of Kheila Kirwan who is 2,000 miles away from her mom at this time, and her desire is to fill her mom's mailbox with good wishes for her 90th birthday on Jan 4, 2010. Please see Kheila's thread here for Violet's info:
I used two different MS flower punches, and 'nested' them inside each other using zots and pearls. The leaves are from an EK punch. I learned this technique from the Queen of 'Hundred Dollar' cards- Tosh, (Stamps4FuninCa). Here is a link to Tosh's gallery.

There is for sure no guessing whose work this is....looks just like your beautiful cards, Pat. I am sure Stef is so pleased with your CASE and it is such a sweet thing for you to send this to a very special mom on her 90th birthday. I know she will adore it.

Oh man, this is stunning. I thought for sure that these flowers were part of a kit or something - I am in awe of all the punching and assembling you did to make this beautiful fall of flowers! What a gorgeous card!
