One More Mother’s Day Card

Here’s one more Mother’s Day card to show you.  I made this one for my terrific mother-in-law, Pat!  It is also done using the Color Wash technique.  I decided to make her flowers pink so I used Melon Mambo.  You can’t see the little pearls in the center of each flower but they are there!

Have a wonderful day!!!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there!!!  Today is our youngest daughter’s first Mother’s Day!!  You can see a cute picture of Erin and Audrey below.

This is the card that I made for Erin.  She loves purple so the flowers were painted using Elegant Eggplant. The card base is Elegant Eggplant too!

Thought I would include a picture of me with my wonderful mom many years ago.  Happy Mother’s Day!!

Mother’s Day Card

Hi Friends!
Today I have a Mother’s Day card for you!  I used the stamp set Fabulous Florets, one I have to admit I have had for some time but have rarely used.  I used the Color Wash technique.  I embossed my flowers and then painted them with Whisper White craft ink.  After it dried, I used my Rich Razzleberry stamp pad and my Aqua Painter and finished coloring my flowers.  My sentiment looks crooked – that is driving me crazy – but in person it is straight.  🙂  It is hard to see in the photo but I also added some pearls in the center of each flower.  The stamp set I used, Wonderful Mother, is retiring so get it now if you like it!

I’m giving this card to my mom for Mother’s Day – I know she won’t see this post before I give it to her.   I have another Mother’s Day card that I will show tomorrow!

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!

Oh, Hello

Hi Friends!
Today’s card is one that was inspired by a card I saw in Stampin! Success, a magazine for demonstrators.  It uses the Honeycomb embossing folder for the Big Shot which has become one of my favorite folders.  The stamp set I used is Oh, Hello.  I stamped the chevron pattern in Crumb Cake and used my Oval Framelits and Big Shot to cut it out.  To color the flower I used my Gumball Green and Elegant Eggplant Stampin’ Write markers and applied the color directly to the stamp.  It is such an easy way to get different colors on a stamped image.  I made a little bow with Linen Thread and adhered it with a two-way glue pen.  I used dimensionals to apply the honeycomb layer to my card base to give it extra dimension.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
