We celebrate Mother's day here in the US on May 12th so I made a few cards to send to my friends for the occasion. This one was done with a silver heat-embossed image panel using some very old Verve stamps that I've had for years. I added a tiny pink paper flower and put a rhinestone gem in the center for a little sparkle. The background was done with a Cuttlebug Geometric Rings embossing folder and I dotted the centers with some silver Stickles dots. The pink panel was die-cut with a Gina Marie Designs Venetian Label die.
I'm sharing this card with these challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - make it feminine
The Double D challenge - Pretty Florals for Mom
Shopping our Stash SOS520 - Make a Mother's day Card
Can you Handle the Pressure? Embossing Challenge - A/G using an embossing folder with an optional twist of "feminine."
I need to get my Mother's day cards addressed and mailed as this notable day for Mom is right around the corner! Thanks for the visit and have a fabulous day!
