Mother's day part 2

-
So I mentioned last night that I still had a mother's day card to do!  Now it's done.  It was a very specific request from a colleague who just had twins a boy and a girl.  When I mentioned that Mother's day was coming he got that freaked out look in his eyes... so I offered to make his card for him.  But then I asked what he wanted and got something way too specific.  I really wasn't sure that I would be able to come up with anything that would be good for him.  I wondered afterwards why I asked... I always ask and end up with a request that's way too hard.


I did all kinds of research and finally found stuff out on this great website: SXC I got my images and got working on my card.  What do you think of this?

I really hope that he likes it!!!!!  I put little robin's nest dew drops in blue and pink to represent the 2 babies. 


I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

  1. Scrap-creations - happy mother's day
  2. Crafty sentiments - mother's day
  3. Deep ocean challenge - what a wonderful woman
  4. Celebrate the occasion - mother's day
  5. Lej designs challenge - things with wings (I figured that the storks would qualify ;) )
Please let me know what you think my wonderful followers.  I so love to read your comments!!!
