New for spring!

Well, it IS spring after all :) Last week I picked up Candace and we went to my mom and dad's house for a tasty lunch. We also made a fun trip to Paper Source in Wellesley, MA. I got all kinds of supplies to print more of mom's cards. Here's mom amongst the papers, she is too cute!


So here is the latest card in our collaboration!


The little cottage is called Crystal Palace. It's in Oak Bluffs on Martha's Vineyard. Mom painted the watercolor when their flowers were in bloom. I especially love how the urn breaks the border and gives the image depth.

I couldn't decide which color background looked best with it, we all agreed the image looked great on each of four colors so that's how we are offering it!

  1. I am honored to be featured in your blog post. I love how you presented the Crystal Palace, how you used the different backgrounds.

    I had a great time with you and Candace that day.

    Loved it all, love you, Mom

  4. Wait, when in the world did you take that photo of your mom? I was there wasn't I?

    I had so much fun that day you have no idea. I don't get to see my own mom very often and seeing yours is such a treat. =)
