Happy Mother's Day


Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there - I hope your day is special and filled with fun things to do and loving family.
I have a card today that was made with snippets of cardstock and designer paper. The banners were done with the PTI Notched Hearts Banner Die collection, using a piece of old "two scoops Basic Grey dsp"  for the scalloped piece, and a panel of pastel pink cardstock on the front. I also cut the top panel in white, adding all the white hearts into the pink panel. The circles were done with MFT stitched circles and the flower is by Hero arts, stamped with versamark and heat-embossed with white ep, then fussy cut before popping up on a foam dot. The center was done with matching dsp and a mini punch, shaped and then added to the flower center. The leaves were fussy cut after going through the paper crimper and the sentiment is by SU!'s teeny tiny wishes (retired); also heat-embossed with white ep on a word window punched element.

I'm sharing this with the following challenges:



the Flower Challenge #32 - embossing (heat/dry)


Thanks for stopping by and now it's time to get on with those mother's day festivities and enjoy your special day!

This is so beautiful with beautiful layers and dimension. I also love your card from yesterday. The ribbon woven through the lace is so pretty.

Wonderful card, and what a lot of work for inlaying those hearts, but it does look great! Hope you have a great day!

A beautifully feminine card, I love the pink and all the tiny hearts and the pop of dark pink really draws the eye in. I hope you've had a nice day across the pond x

Oh Carol what a beautiful card you have made here. Such softness in colours, fabulous dies and such a stunning soft flower as your focal point. Love the wee hearts in the background and how you have added contrast with the white ones inside the pretty pink. Awesome layout.

Love the look of the inlaid die and the burgundy really pops against the lighter colors.
