ATSM Challenge # 143 - HOLIDAY

Hello everyone! I hope today finds you well. 

Today is the start of a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More. The theme for this week is

HOLIDAY

I took a 'little' liberty with our theme this week. I created a Mothers Day card. While it isn't a celebrated National holiday per say, I think that on Mothers Day we should be having a holiday from all things domestic!! No laundry, no washing up, no vacuuming (the list goes on!). 

Here is my DT card -

I started with a piece of watercolour paper and used texture paste over a stencil (sent to me by my buddy Loll).

When the texture paste was dry, I embossed the sentiment.

Next I sprinkled some brushos over the panel and sprayed it with water. Once it was dry, I used a baby wipe just to wipe over the textured parts. 

A few little butterflies finished it off.

Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is

Now, I am hoping that my mum doesn't read this post before Sunday ;) because I am going to show you a little gift that I have sewn for her.

It is getting quite cold down where my mum lives so I thought a couple of nice heat packs would be just what she needs.

I made two heat packs. One larger one for her lap or feet when she goes to bed. I also made a smaller one for her neck.

The little poem on the tag I found on pinterest.

I would like to enter my heat pack into the
