You would have arrived from Maria's blog. Am the last stop in the Hop. Hop over to the Altenew blog to check all the stops and beautiful cards churned by the Wonderful Artists around the world. 

South Indians call their Mother as AMMA, and I grew up with my granny and lovingly call her MA. These words are SO much filled with emotions and must say, all my Creative Streaks are from both of them! Today's card is dedicated to to them.

Over to my card,


My card features Always Be Kind Stamp

Other products are:

Woodless Watercolor pencils

Fine Alphabets Die Set

Best Mom Stamp set

I have used the pretty florals from Always Be Kind stamp set. I recently gifted Lavender shaded Morning glory plant to my Plant Nerd Mom. So I coloured my florals in Lavender shade as am gonna gift this card on her birthday in April. Used Woodless watercolor pencils for colouring.

The word 'AMMA' is diecut from Fine Alphabet Dies from ombre bg created by the woodless watercolor pencils.

I love your large ombré AMMA as well as your beautiful floral. You can never go wrong using plum in my estimation! I just got my Altenew colored pencils and hope to try them out soon…

Becky Gregory said...

This is gorgeous! And I love why you chose the color. I am going to use this as inspiration for a card to my roommate's mom (she is like a mom to me).

*This might be a repeated comment. I tried to post one but it doesn't show.

This card is gorgeous! I love the color and the reason that you chose it. I will use it as inspiration for making a card for my roommate's mom (she is like a mom to me)

Hello Sathya, your card is very pretty. I like seeing artist using the watercolor pencils. The colors and layout of your card is perfect. I know your Amma will love your card. Have a beautiful day.

Donna Walls said...

Gorgeous Sathya. Does Amma mean "Grandma" or "Mother"?

Tricia H. said...

Oh wow. Saved the best for last. I am IN LOVE with this design. I'm also grabbing those woodless watercolor pencils. The color seems to be really pigmented, but yet muted. I can't wait to see what else you do.
