and i'm extra excited because it's also my mom's birthday! ha ha! (happy birthday, mom!)
this new challenge is all about polka dots, pople!!
i think my card is super fun! well, it's a shaped card, so it's got that going for it! lol!
i die cut out the banners and the card base/background. the un-polka dotted base is watercolor paper that i stamped directly on and then colored the image with my distress markers. it's hard to tell they were the distress markers, though! ha ha! not very watercolor-y! :) oops.
i used my sewing machine and sewed along the border a few times and also sewed on the banners (and around the border of the sentiment banner).
add a few pearls, and you got this beaut-e, made for my mom who, really is, so lovely! :)
