A birthday card for Mom !

Hey guys !

How have u been ? 

Well since its pretty cold here on my side of the planet so i was down with flu :( 

and it just didn't let me craft or post anything 

So finally i found a lil energy to sit up straight (rolling eyes)

Okay so this is a card i made recently for my mom for her bday :) 

 

Well i always wanted to do the embossed female Face :) 

Seemed very apt here. 

Im not sure why but i was sort of fixated on keeping the female black and shadowy

After embossing i painted her jet black in acrylic colors for the figure to show off more.

The flowers are handmade :) Love the pink , it sort of brought life to the vintagey frame. 

The flourish is made on pie lane wood free silk paper (Lovee the fresh green)

And i think we can never go wrong with pearls !!

This lil dragon fly here (which more aptly looks like a baby butterfly)

is cut from Magnolia DRAGONFLIES Doohickeys Cutting Dies 

Ahh i am in love with them....

 

Now the embossed frame ... well its done with

Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folders 4PK - Loving Thoughts

Thats a set i really love , its got this full size frame , and a fitting female face silhouette

  I enjoy creating with this one ! :) 

I used some distress ink to give it a lil color but dint want it to be too over powering! 

 

Well this is how the inside looks like :)

The stamped sentiment is from  8"x8" Clear Stamps - Laugh With Me 

The birthday one is from Sizzix Sizzlits Die Set 3PK - Card Phrases Set #3 

I lovee the luxurious feel to it :)

There look at the Beautiful flawless embossing ..... so amazing :) 

And oh yeah ! i saved the best to the last ! 

I sort of wanted to fill those lil corners with something ,i just didnt know what 

and out of blues i just pored in some modge podge and some glitter balls by pie lane

they sort of are stuck for life :D 

but mom loved em ! :)

 So hope u enjoyed the post ! 

Cant wait to hear your comments :)
