Three of something

It was such a surprise today to find the card from my last post showcased at Less is More. Thanks Mandi and Chrissie, it is such an honour! 
The challenge at Less is More this week is to make a one layer card with three of something. I have chosen three techniques in applying ink, stamping, sponging, and colouring!



This card is for my Mum. She has taken my kids home to her house , to give them a holiday, and to give me some time to get work done for uni. I miss them terribly, but I'm so grateful for the time — I wouldn't have been able to do what I have this week if they were here. They are all having a wonderful time.
