Today just happens to be Mother's Day, so to all those mums out there - "Happy Mother's Day!".
I've made this card for a special aunt & will post it this arvo, although I must admit it will be a day late, but you know the old saying "Better late, than never"
For my card, I've taken the sketch from Clean & Simple Stamping It also qualifies for my group's weekly challenge, I think!
Group's Weekly Challenge # 119 - Focusing on Embellishments. We must have at least 3 emblishments on our project.
Base Card - Concord Crush - 5 7/8" x 4 1/8" or 15cm x 10.5cm - Score & fold
Layer 1 - Blushing Bride - 5 3/4" x 4" or 14.5cm x 10cm
Layer 2 - Concord Crush - 4 5/8" x 3" or 11cm x 7.5cm
Layer 3 - Blushing Bride - 4 1/2" x 2 7/8" or 10.5cm x 7cm
DSP - 1 3/4" x 2 7/8" or 4.5cm x 7cm
I stamped the Blushing Bride Cardstock randomly using Blushing Bride Ink & my flower image & adhered it to the base card.
I randomly rubbed Shimmer Paint over the Blushing Bride Cardstock & heat embossed Clear Embossing Powder for the flower outline. I used Versamark & Basic Gray Ink for the flower outline. I repeated the same process for the sentiment. I then adhered the DSP to the bottom half of the card piece.
I added the Brad to the middle of the Ribbon prior to adhering this to the top of the DSP. I adhered Blushing Bride Cardstock to Concord Crush & adhered the whole lot to the Base Card.
Wanting to make the card "pop" a little more, I added 3 small Basic Pearls to the top RHS, bottom LHS & bottom RHS of the card. I also decided to add one to the middle of the brad. I used Crystal Effects to adhere the pearls.
Cardstock - Concord Crush, Blushing Bride
Until next time, Enjoy!
