Hi there! I hope you all had a great weekend and wonderful Mother's Day celebration if you observed :) Unfortunately Scott had to work today so he was not able to join Jerry, April, April's Mom and myself for Mother's Day brunch. We had a great time and the food was yummy. April gave her Mom the framed layout that she made the other day and her Mom really loved it :) I made an extra copy of one of the photos and made a canvas for April using her favorite colors: purple and yellow.

I covered the canvas with tissue paper then added lots of texture using fiber paste and the MFT MPD Square Motif stencil.

After randomly spritzing on purple and yellow mists, I used white acrylic paint with the MPD Graduated Dots stencil to add random polka dots.

All the chipboard pieces are all the way from Imaginarium Designs located in Australia.

Thanks so much for visiting ~ I hope you have a great evening / day!

Be Sweet ;)
