The Mother's Day Card

Yes, as in singular. I wanted to make more, but my mojo just wasn't with me. Not even on National Scrapbook Day. So this is the only one I completed and I'm not truly sure I like it. But Mom loved it, so that's all that counts. Right? Right. On to the details. The design is from a previous weeks Mojo Monday sketch. The cardstock is from Stampin' Up. Once I decided to use this Prima paper from the 6x6 Madeline pad, I thought of Purely Pomogranite from the '08 In Colors. The blue from the same collection was also a great match. I embossed it with the Victoria Cuttlebug folder. The circle and scallop circle were cut with Nestibilities. The flowers are from my Prima stash. I sprayed them with homemade Perfect Pearls spray for some sparkle. I added some ribbon and pearls for finishing touches. Pretty simple, but still pretty. Works for me.

Until next time...

A Mother's Love

Hi there. Today I thought I'd share some Mother's Day cards I created a while ago. I was brainstorming ideas for cards to make tomorrow and thought looking back would be great inspiration. Both of these cards are all pretty simple. Apparently that's how I roll. The first card is made with papers from an Autumn Leaves mat stack. Super cute papers. The stamp is one of the Studio G $1 clear stamps. I guess i liked it cause I made a few more cards using the same stamp. I just may use it tomorrow or whenever I get around to making cards this year.

The second card has patterned paper from Junkitz. I heard they went out of business and I could cry. They made such wonderful papers. Lots of bright colors and great whimsical flower patterns. There's one design that I've been hoarding for quite some time. Now I may never use it. What can I say - I need therapy.























Well, I guess that's all for now. Until next time...
