Special Day
Mother's Day is coming up and I usually make and send cards to my two sisters, my daughter, and several elderly aunts. I try to make enough cards to also send to my good friends in town as well. As I only have a couple of Mother's Day sentiments, I made up a few multiples with a more general theme on the front, and am writing Mother's Day greetings inside. In following my promise to use more old stash, I dug deep into my wood mounted stamp collection and used Garden Blocks by Stampin' Up. This was one of my first Stampin'Up sets and the date on it is 2003. I stamped them in bright, bold colors and then popped them up on foam tape for dimension. Some twine and a sentiment by Your Craft Spot (now out of business) and I have two down with six to go!
Pixie's Snippets challenge #377. Although all the squares look like I used the same white card stock for each, I actually used scraps of 3 different card stocks! It didn't help that I had to toss a few out due to incomplete stamping, but I did use up lots of snippets.

Delightful card, Karen! Your choice of colors is perfect for spring. Great idea for Mother's Day, too. Thank you for playing along with us at Double Trouble #55.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet of you to honor so many important mothers in your, Karen! All your stamped images refer to life, growing, and abundance... perfect for Mother's Day! Thank you for sharing your lovely card and story with us at Double Trouble! -Donna
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous card Karen - lovely design and such pretty colours too. Scraps of white card are always so useful - I gulp if i throw any snippet of card away :) And what a corker of a stamps set - it hasn't dated in the least, it's a keeper for sure! And finally - I do love the twine you added - really makes this card so special.
ReplyDeleteAnd finally, finally - I promise you, Dudley's manners aren't impeccable! The other day, Len picked him up to pop up him on his 'look out' table and Dudley promptly burped right in Len's face. A delicate burp but a burp nevertheless! Could have been worse though I said.
