CAS Mother's Day box set for Gram who is visiting. Her 92nd bd is next week, so this is her gift. Gram chose the image and colors herself. Image was masked and watercolored. Watercolor Minis were added for bg. The flowers were made using MS Flower Punches and are nested together with zots.
Thanks for looking.

That is an ADORABLE treatment of the image and gentle theme. How did you mask the girls? Not with paper, I presume? Thanks for sharing your work and your detailed instructions,

I love the look of having the punched border be the edge of the card... lacy and elegant and unique...
thanks for sharing this beauty Pat! I am loving it!
