Can you believe that May is right around the corner? That means it's time to recognize our mothers, the salt of this earth. I had a special request from a friend at church to look at my Mother's Day cards. Since I only had a couple to choose from, I got inspired to throw one more in the mix.
I have a few favorite stamp sets from the Unity Stamp Co and an idea, so I went to work. For some reason, and this rarely happens, but I knew exactly what I was going to do. Ding, ding, ding! Gotta love those lightening strike moments....
I'll try to be quick here. I combined 3 different Unity kits: The flower swag is from the Bunches of Love sentiment kit, the leaves and sentiment are from the {Leaf}ing Grateful set, and the inside sentiment is from the Mother's day daisies set. I added some Orange shiny May Arts ribbon that I've had forever and also some new May Arts green net ribbon which I am totally in love with these days. Finished it all off with some enamel dots. I just love the brightness of it. Hope my friend does too.
Hi Terri! Your card is gorgeous! What a beautiful way to celebrate the gift of mothers! :o) Thank you for your comment on my birthday wands this morning!
ReplyDeleteTo adhere the rolled flowers to cards/any paper, I use Crafter's Pick Incredibly Tacky Glue (purchased at Michaels). Something like Zip Dry Paper Glue would probably also be strong enough, but I always use the Incredibly Tacky Glue to adhere my handmade flowers or Wild Orchid Crafts Flowers because it's just so strong I never need to worry that it'll fall off after giving away the project. :o)
I love these rolled flowers dies and if you get them, I hope you do too! :o) Have a beautiful day! Hugs and blessings,
Karen
