Mom's Butterfly

 Hello Friends! 

Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms out there! 

I started with the Simon Says Stamp Delicate Flowers Stamp Set and stamped and colored the flower and extra leaves with Copics.  The butterfly is from Sweet n Sassy Stamps.  After coloring, all images were fussy cut out.  

I created a window in the white panel with a retired PTI Die.  The pink background panel was heat embossed with the SnSS Typewriter Text Background Stamp and clear embossing powder. I determined the placement of my leaves and flowers, then determined the placement of my sentiment.  The sentiment was stamped in my MISTI with Versafine Claire ink.  

The white panel was popped up and the foliage was adhered to the card.  A few SSS Moonshine sequins finish the card.

Azaleas for Mom

 Hello Friends! 

Now that Easter has come and gone, it is time to start working on Mother's Day cards.  I pulled out another oldie but goodie for this card- a gorgeous azalea set from Power Poppy.  

The image was colored with Copics and fussy cut out.  I had a white rectangle die cut sitting on my desk, so I used that along with a kraft card base.  I found the perfect piece of patterned paper and adhered that along the left-hand side of the card.  

I stamped a sentiment from a SnSS stamp set and then die cut it out with an old MFT banner die.  I think banners need to make a comeback!  I finished off the card with some SSS Moonshine sequins and added white details to the stamen with a white gel pen.

Flower Power

 Hello~

It's been a while since I crafted and blogged.  This past weekend I got together with a friend to craft- 12 hours of crafting and boy, was I productive!  And. I enjoyed it which has not happened in a while.  

With spring almost upon us, I decided to make a Mother's Day card.  I used some of my all time favorite flowers from the True Beauty Stamp Set from Sweet n Sassy Stamps.  

The flowers and leaves were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copics  EDIT-watercolors.  I also used a sprig from the Botanical Branches Stamp Set.  Sentiment is from the Precious Poppies Stamp Set.  The sentiment is heat embossed with Gina K. Fine Detail Gold Embossing Powder on vellum.  

The background panel is embossed with a Tim Holtz 3D embossing folder- Botanical. Three SSS Moonshine sequins finish off the card with a bit of sparkle.  

I am linking up to Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Anything Goes Challenge as well as Just Us Girls with this week's mood board challenge~

Linking up to As you See It for their Raindrops on Roses Challenge -one of my favorite things about spring is flowers.
