Mother's Day Card

Good Morning,

In Ireland, today is Mother's Day, and I made a card for my mother that would show how much I care about her.

This was a quick and easy card to make but the card came out lovely I think.

So I rummaged around my crafty larder and knowing my moms aversion to black I picked up some beautiful flocked card that I think is Kaisercraft,  After that I used Spellbinders dies from Botanical swirls and accents from the Suzanne Walker collection and then passed the corner from the set through the ebosser 4 times to make each corner.


I used the Asian Motifs to cut around the stamped message in the centre from Spellbinders as well.


I picked Hunkydory  pink card and leaves 'acetate' layered as the base. I cut a square measuring 7.5'' x 7.5'' and taped them with clear adhesive.

I applied the corners overlapping them slightly to fit the size of the card.  I used clear adhesive pads so it couldn't be seen.

I added some Creative Expressions pearl swirls and crystal swirls also for bling. I used Prima  flowers for some elegance as I also think of my mom in this fashion too.


I also layered it on some lovely holographic card and more of the original pink card sans acetate leaves so the entire card measured 8' x 8'

Et voila!! A card I'm proud to post... twice!!! LOL!!

Hope you have a lovely Mother's Day with the ones you love.
