Whoo hoo I have made this card just in time!!! YAY. This weeks colours were a challenge but now I actually like them :) And I used a rose is a rose stamp set which you probably wouldnt expect to use with these colours, but I quite like it. I call this card my simple simplcity lol. As some of you may have noticed I am loving my white gel pen thanks Kell for that addiction heheh Kell always makes the most gorgeous cards with her gel pen stitching! Its my Mums birthday next week Wednesday and I am thinking this would be a beautiful card, most of you know My mum died almost 3 years ago when she was 53, but there is nothing saying you cant still make your mum or dad birthday cards just because they are no longer with us. One mothers day after my mum died I made a card and wrote in it but kept it for myself. It just kinda feels nice to make somethine for them. So anyway here are the colours for the latest Inkspiration challenge and below that is my card. Hope you like.

Oh Kristy I am sure that your mother would love this card as it's just stunning. Sometimes it's the little things that help us get by and your right, just because they aren't here with us doesn't mean you can't make something for them and they will always be with you in your heart. Your also right I would had never thought to had used a Rose is a Rose in those colours but look at the beautiful card you have made using it. White gel pen comes hand in hand with any card I make now, I can't stop myself!
BIGGEST HUGS Princess xx
I found these colours were hard to play with but have seen some stunning cards usung them - and this is another beauty!
And I think it's lovely you still think of your mum this way - my dad's been gone 26 years and I still miss him!

It's gorgeous Kristy and the perfect card for your mum. So nice you can still do this and think of her in a special way - I'm sure she would love it.
I love how you use the gel pen - great job with the colours. x
Gorgeous card Kristy, and such a great way to remember your mum. Love the faux stitching.
