For Mum
Today I am sharing the card I made for my Mum for Mother’s Day. I found some gorgeous cards on Pinterest by Tami White who graciously shared her instructions for creating the cards. I cut my card base and belly band from Thick Basic White card. I cut the left hand card front layer from Moody Mauve card which I embossed using the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder. I cut the right hand card front layer from a sheet of the gold paper from the Naturally Gilded 12″ x 12″ Specialty Paper.
I used a Blending Brush to add Moody Mauve ink to the Designer Series Paper before attaching it to the card base. I stamped “happy Mother’s Day” from the now retired Celebrating You stamp set onto Basic White card using Moody Mauve ink. I attached the stamped panel to the inside of the card. I wrapped the belly band around the closed card and secured the ends. I cut a circle from Basic White card using one of the circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies.
I attached the circle to the belly band so that it covered the join. I stamped the flower from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set onto Moody Mauve card using Versamark ink. I sprinkled the image with gold embossing powder and heat set it. I cut out the flower using the co-ordinating Irresistible Blooms Dies I die cut two different leaves from Gold Foil card using the Irresistible Blooms Dies. I attached the leaves and flower to the belly band. I love this card and I know that my Mum did too. So thank you Tami for being so generous and sharing your instructions.
Bye for now,
Kris
