Art Deco!

It's time for a new challenge over at My Time To Craft, where this week we want to see your

MOTHERS DAY!

 'a special lady'.....This time I have made a mothers day card as I was asked to by one of our Katie's friends. But it's the first one in a while!


My darling hubby got me this stamp last month, when I was laid up in bed with gastric flu. 
I have seen lots of these large bows around blogland lately & decided to give it a try.....not sure tho...what do you think?
There is glitter on her feather & boa, but as per usual you can't see it very well arghhh!!!

    WOW! Gorgeous! I do like the big bow. I suck at bows so I've decided I'm going to buy one of those bow makers :o) Wonderful image (how nice of your hubby) and the purple and black are gorgeous together. Lovely my friend. Hugs D
