I'm finally getting around to sharing a card I made for my dear friend who lost her mother to a brain tumor a few months ago. I can't imagine the pain she is going through...
I started by stamping the flowers with Memento ink and then colored the stripes using a Copic marker just a shade darker than the cardstock. I then topped off the stripes with the Stardust Stickles glitter and for the center layered glossy accents over the stickles for a shiny center. I don't know if these two flowers were really supposed to go together (they were released at separate times), but they were just screaming out to me to be layered so I popped them up with a little foam tape between them for some added dimension.

Basic Grey Cappella 6x6 Paper Pad (CAP-2411)

Mendi, this is such a pretty card! I can image the pain your friend is feeling over the loss of her Mom. My Dad has been battling brain cancer for the past 15 1/2 months. My Prayers go out to her and her family.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to you Gina. Every once in awhile I check out Renee's blog and I read up on all the things your family has been going through. My prayers are with you guys! There are too many darn brain tumors popping up in this world (all of a sudden it seems).
