Mom's birthday...

Already on it's way for Mom's birthday:



Supplies:

  • Strathmore watercolor paper stamped with Tim's Patchwork stamps in Distress Embossing Ink and heat embossed with Wendi Vecchi/Ranger Potting Soil embossing powder
  • Color Bursts in Sepia, Terra Verte, and Pthalo Green
  • Background gray panel is Tim Holtz's/Core'dinations paper inked with a bit of DI in Gathered Twigs
  • Watered-down white Liquitex gesso splattered across both panels (which I think unifies them more)
  • Vintage sheet music in the very back
  • Fussy-cut daylily from an old guide glued on with Mod Podge
  • Birthday greeting typed with my typewriter onto a library catalog card
I'd like to share this at the following challenges:
