Happy Mother's Day!



Three cards for Mother's Day, today. the first two are from my Mother's Day Class, we watercolored in two of the classes but for the third class (a class with tweenagers) we did straight stamping.
So for the first two cards:
  • The bases of the cards are Confetti White, layered with Bravo Burgundy, then Confetti White, then Blushing Bride from the Level one hostess gifts. 
  • Card #1 two of the images from Fifth Avenue Floral was stamped on Confetti White using Cherry Cobbler and Pretty in Pink in the lower right corner.
  • Wonderful Mother from the retired set (I used this set even tho it is retired, since I was doing the class with kids that were not going to be ordering I felt safe using it) Well Scripted was stamped on Confetti White with Rose Red, then punched with the Wide Oval punch, layered onto a Bravo Burgundy frame cut with the sizzlit Lots of Tags, a butterfly in Blushing Bride cut with the embosslit Beautiful Wings was added as well. This was popped up with Dimensionals.
  • The image was layered onto Bravo Burgundy that was layered onto Very Vanilla that had the top and bottom side punched with the Pinking Hearts punch.This was then was added to the layered base.
  • Card #2 The same images were stamped on Watercolor paper with Stazon, two were restamped on scraps of Watercolor paper. The rose is pretty in Pink- shading was Regal Rose.  The Lily is Pink Pirouette with shading of Blushing Bride, stamens were colored Cherry Cobbler. The Daisy type flowers were colored with Cherry Cobbler shading was Bravo Burgundy.  The rose and one daisy type flower were cut out and popped up with Dimensionals.
  • The phrase is from All Holidays and was stamped in Rose Red.
  • This card was finished the same as the first card.
The last card was an experiment. I made the back ground paper and stamped on ribbon and it was laying on my desk so this was what I did with them.
  • Card base is Pretty in Pink with a front of Basic Black CS with one side punched with the pinking hearts punch, layered with Glossy White paper that was stippled with Frost and Champagne Shimmer paint. 
  • The stamped P in P ribbon was taped down to the left side.
  • Thanks for Caring was used the butterfly is Pink Pirouette with the phrase stamped over it with Stazon on Whisper White punched with the 1 3/4" circle layered onto a scallop circle of P in P.
I hope all of you are having as wonderful a Mother's Day as I am.
