CAS, sketch and stamping only

Happy New Year! I hope you all are well. This is my first post in 2018 and in a few weeks, I'be been busy enjoying December and Christmas activities.
I've gone clean and simple with a wood mounted stap from Penny Black, being inspired by the sketch over at LIM.
I watercolored the image using DIs and I used a powder brush to add the subtle blue backgrond. The sentiment says "the best mum in the world".


This card is for:
Inkspirational - Stamping only
Penny Black and more - CAS
Less Is More - #360+361 Sketch
