Lavendar for Mother's Day

OK, just to tide us all over until I can sit down to make a few more cards (the assignment has really taken it out of me.... next one is due in June), here's a card I put together a few weeks ago.

I used reverse masking to create a panel down the middle of the card and used the leaves from Petal Prints. The greeting is gold embossed and from the retired set All Year Cheer II. Elegant Eggplant, Old Olive and Very Vanilla card was used, as well as Elegant Eggplant ink - stamped off for the bottom part of the lavendar (from Petal Prints too). Gold cord (retired) was used to tie the lavendar together.

I'm really happy with how it turned out and Paul really liked it too. The only thing is lavendar gives Mum a migraine, so maybe Mamma will score this one....
