A Posy of Flowers for Mother's Day

I took a selection of Mother's Day cards into a local school for the staff last week so I thought that I would replenish my stock. A bit late, I know, but they will keep for next year!

This one was cased from a card found on Pinterest. I filed this on in my head so it  will be very different from my effort. I didn't Pin it myself so can't credit the original.  I could search again but life is too short. 

I printed the sentiment on the computer masked it before stamping the flowers. I added gems to bling it up.

A Variation on a Theme

I know that I am in danger now of boring both you and me with my insistence in getting value from a recent purchase  but I am going ahead anyway.

Here is the latest Mother's Day card:

This is identical to a previous card that I made.  The only difference is the choice of card that was cut with the respective dies. This only goes to show how versatile the product is ( Tonic dies).

Another Mother's Day Card

Here I am again with another card for Mother's Day using the Tonic Affections collection of dies. Not bored yet with coming up with alternative designs but I do yearn to get out the stamps and ink pads!

 

This time there is no matting and layering (except for the addition of the sentiment) Instead I applied two dies directly to the 6" white base card to create a cut out front. I used silver mirror card to cut the Mother's Day die and then added a red insert to create a contrast to show off the detail of the die cut.

 

 

 
 

 

This is such an easy card to execute and would be perfect for a wedding invitation. Just add die cut initials of the bride and groom in the central heart space.

Still Working the same dies!

Missed the deadline  for posting a card a day using one collection of dies! It is now 12.05am so I will pretend that this is yesterday's post - Day 3.

Ok ... here is another Mother's Day card that I made using the Tonic Affections dies purchased recently.

 I do feel guilty that I have created this 6" (15cm) card entirely out of die cuts. No stamps or additional embellishments were used in the creation of this card! I have resisted the urge to add even a single pearl gem.  Maybe next time....

I used a cream base card , cream card and gold pearl card.
