Card for Mum

Over at Isabella's Challenge blog we have a theme this week of  " Mothers Day" . Isabella has lots of  gorgeous images perfect for a card for Mum. Check out what the rest of the design team have come up with, there are lots of great ideas on the challenge blog.
 I've used " Mum's Helper" and coloured her with copics. The paper is MME and the sentiment is computer generated. The flowers are prima. I've distressed the edges and inked with Antique linen distress ink.




I'm also entering this in the Stamptacular Sunday-   Mothers Day

    Fantastic card! I love the way you say "mum". :) (I do that, too....though I'm not "English"...but Canadian is close enough, eh?)
