hi there,
Here is my card for the IC today with a tribute to our Moms. My mom was one of a kind, giving, so caring about others and she lived, laughed and loved deeply. She was also my best friend and I miss her so much everyday.
My mom loved earrings and I chose these for their uniqueness and beauty just like my Mom: http://www.novica.com/itemdetail/?pid=155566
I used a Prima mask and applied some Gesso over keeping it all to the one side. When dry, I sprinkled on Brushos (a paint medium) and sprayed with water. It left behind a beautiful texture and designs.
thanks for looking,

BEAUTIFUL card, Karen! Love the effect you achieved of impressionistic flowers with the gesso...and all in your signature colors. Have a great week-end, mf.
