Here's the inside:
I know it's Valentine's Day, but I'm so done with the holiday. (wink) Hubby and I don't even celebrate it. Besides, my Mom's birthday is coming up and I wanted to make her a card. ☺ I bought an 8-1/2" x 11" um, sheet(?), of burlap last year and I'm very slowly cutting into it. Yay me. I used the current sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches #287. Lots of layers on this card. I love this pretty butterfly paper so that became my color palette. I broke out my trusty ol' Slice die cutter and die cut "Mom" three times. stacked and glued them together, and added Stickles on top for some glittery goodness. It's hard to see, but the bottom sentiment was embossed also.
You can see it a bit better in this photo.
