F4A168, Happy Mother's Day

Photo Details

Poster: k dunbrook

hi there,
Here is my card for the F4A challenge, M is for Mother. I created this for my MIL and since she has a vision problem and sees black and whites better then colour, I decided to keep the background simple so she could actually see the design. This stamp is a square so I stamped it 4 times to make the background. Then the banner flowers were cut out and coloured with Copics and pieced for interest.
Happy Mother's Day to all of you!! Thanks for looking.

in awe of the One who gave it all.
I'll stand, my soul, Lord, to You surrendered,
all I am is Yours.

What thought you have given your card and how personal you have made it. The pop of color is eye catching.

My Grandma had macular degeneration and had problems with distinguishing colors. She would have loved this! I like the composition and the focal pop of color leading you to the sentiment. Thanks for the inspiration.
