Mother's Day Cards

Traditionally we have a Mother's Day BBQ and have both sides of the family come for supper, and inevitably it rains or even snows. This year both our mothers are away for this day so it'll be a quiet day for us. I made these cards to send with the mothers and for the other mothers in our family.

These cards are all totally cased from several other demos and on-line blogs that I follow.

Hope you enjoy.








I cased this card from Tiffany Bauer: her blog can be found here: www.mycraftyworld.blogspot.com
I used Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink, Cards Stock and Polka Dotted Ribbon along with DSP from the Cottage Wall Collection. The image from Messages for Mom was stamped on Whisper White. I then attached a flower and half pearl from the pretties kit.









This card was cased from Carl Bazhenow's blog found here: www.carlascraps.com
The same image as above was used and then colored with inks and the blender pen. Layers were made from Shades of Spring DSP, Pretty in Pink and Melon Mambo, the edge was punched with the Scallop Trim Border punch. I used the small rhinestone brads found in the pretties kit to finish it off.






The Pink and Green cards were cased from Diana Gibbs, her blog can be found here:

I love the new satin ribbons, the purple one is one I had in my stash but it matches the Shades of Spring DSP perfectly). The sentiment is from Well Scripted set.

The Bermuda Bay card was cased from Jen Sannes, her blog can be found here: www.simpleandsincere.com
This one uses the SAB Welcome Neighbor DSP and the SAB set as well.

Thanks for looking!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you mothers!

Iris Folded Valentines

These are a couple of cards I did for a swap, the theme was Iris or Teabag folding. For these I used the new paper pack from the SAB Welcome Neighbor, the flourish from the Messages for Mom set in the new Occaisions mini catalogue. This was used to create a background paper by stamping it randomly on Melon Mambo and Whisper White cardstock. A little Melon Mambo grosgrain ribbon finishes it off. The "Bling" in the middle is just a bit of my stash that I picked up ages ago and I'm not even sure where it came from. The heart shape was punched out using the Full Heart punch. The sentiment is also from Messages for Mom.

Thanks for looking!

Have a great weekend,
