Another Mother’s Day Card

May 10, 2011

Hi Everyone,
I hope you all have a fabulous Tuesday….Today’s card is another Mother’s Day Card that I made for my mom. I couldn’t post it earlier since she’s a follower of my blog and I didn’t want her to see it until I gave it to her on Sunday.

Mom (Carol) loves to craft too. She’s amazingly wicked with a crochet hook, but now I have her totally hooked (get it hooked, crochet hook…I know that was bad) on paper crafting. I used to drag her kicking and screaming to the CK (Creative Keepsake) Convention in Valley Forge…She can’t wait to go this year…

So here it is…I’ve been in a real stamping mood lately and playing with my Paper Trey Ink Stamps and dies….

Mother’s Day Card

May 7, 2011

Hi All,

Ethan came home today with a card he made at school for Mother’s Day. Ethan being Ethan not only made the card to me, he made it for his Grandma’s and aunts too. I think we need to share it 🙂 He is just the sweetest kid ever…I’ll post a picture of the card later this weekend 🙂

Thought I would share a quick post on a card I made for Mother’s Day. I was in the mood to do a little stamping.

I used the Flower Fusion #2 (Paper Trey Ink) stamp set and die to create the flower. I’ve been getting a lot of use out of this set of stamps. The sentiment is from Fillable Frame’s #4 (Paper Trey Ink).

The card is a standard A2 size card with several layers. I wasn’t worried about how heavy the card was since I knew I was going to be hand delivering it to my mother-in-law.
