(A Late) Happy Mother's Day!

I know it's already the 9th, but I've just finished my card for tonight and I couldn't let this day (actually yesterday already...) to pass without telling all the beautiful and crafty women I know here in the blogosphere a sweet, truthful and well-deserved  

"Happy Mother's Day!"

As a gift for all my lady readers and followers ( in fact, all talented crafty women are ladies, because the art will always ennoble us) I will share with you a card I've done last night, as a request from one of my college colleagues, who wanted this for her mother. It's been the first time I've quilled with this palette of colours - chocolate, cappuccino, mild beiges and yellows, khaki, pale greens and a touch of burgundy. I've had the papers for a long time, loved the colours when I had bought them but never had the chance to work with them. But I must admit I like the way they blend together on the ivory card stock, although they might look more like "autumn-y" rather than "spring-y" :) 

I truly hope that the celebrated receiver of my work enjoyed it. Do you? I'll wait for your opinions and comments below, but,

Until next time, 
Behave And Quill!
