You Made Growing Up FUN!

I had some time to color, so I made a couple of Mother's Day cards using Copics.  This card design was inspired by my mom, she truly made our home a fun place to live!



Those houses from Penny Black Victorian Home were so fun to color.  The background was ink blended with DI Tumbled Glass on a Paper Studio card base.  The sentiment was printed onto PTI Limeade Ice cs and cut to fit.  The green is not so acidic looking IRL.  The balloons are from Penny Black Critter Party , also colored with Copics.  I cut a small slit in the window and tucked the thread into it, taping it down on the back of the house.  Each thread was then adhered behind each balloon with foam tape.

I'm linking up to Marker Pop! Challenge #68: Anything goes!

Thanks so much for coming over to visit!  I hope you have a great day making your home a fun place to live!
