Happy Birthday to my Mom by Love...

I made this for my best friend, Kellye's mom, Cathye.  Kellye's family has welcomed me with open arms and have become my family.  Cathye calls me her daughter by love, which makes me well up with tears everytime she says it.  Mom loves to spend time in her garden and do yard work so I wanted to create a card that symbolizes that.

I CASE'd a card from Michelle Zindorf's amazing gallery.  I used Black, White, and SU patterned paper.  Stampin' Up and Scene in a Garden stamp sets.  Always Artichoke, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Smoky Slate, and Versamark inks.  Always Artichoke, More Mustard, Real Red and White markers.  Finished off the card with some brads. 

Thank you for looking!
