I made a card for my Mom, my parents anniversary was in October and since Dad's passing, each year we try to make it special for her just the same. And this card really was 'from the heart'. Their marriage is what brought all of us here.....
Anyway, I found the idea for this card over at Michelle Zindorf's blog, she's a true artist. I really love pulling out my brayer now. I never used to use it at all. It's such a wonderful tool!
I have different stamps then she used, but it still worked. I love pulling out my Artfully Asian set anyway :)
Set: Artfully Asian, F3345 Large Grass (The Happy Stamper), Shore Thing, Holidays and Wishes.
Accessories: Whisper White, Bermuda Bay & Basic Gray cardstocks, Stamp A Majig, Brayer, Sponge, White Gel pen, Various SU Inks, Light Pink Organdy (retired) and Light Pink Grosgrain.

This is really gorgeous! I love the look you gave your card - it is very artistic, so I guess you read really well! I need to go look at her blog again - she is a great teacher!
Love the background. This has a very Oriental look and is beautiful.

I would call you an artist too, this card is beautiful! What great color and the elements of the card all work together so well.
wow... this is just beautiful! You did an amazing job with the brayer and I love that stamp set and the way you used it!
This is gorgeous Katie - I don't have a brayer, but you may have convinced me to get one after seeing your card :)
That is beautiful and what a wonderful thing for your mom to know that her special day is still remembered.
Stunning design and perfect images that you chose for this special card. I am sure your mother appreciated it.
Wow, it's beautiful. Love the colours and the brayering is fantastic.
This is so pretty, I love the background you created with your brayer, the colors are so tranquil. Your project came together very well. I think it is great you still hone this day for your mom.
Beautiful brayer work!
