Mother's Day is fast approaching and the theme this week at CASology is "Mom".
The base of my card is Concord & 9th's watercolored notecards - these come in gorgeous colors and are wonderful for creating a quick card. I cut a piece to 4 1/4"x5 1/2" and stamped the pretty flowers from Gina K's Elegant Florals 2 set with Hero Arts intense black ink. I used my MISTI to get a good black impression for the sentiment (also from the Gina K. set) in the center. Copics were used to give the flowers a little more color which would blend with the background colors. I die cut this piece with MFT frame die and popped the frame up with some foam tape on a card base. Placed the center piece back to line up everything - had to add a few black lines with a fine tip pen to extend the stems of the flowers to the edge. Added a few sequins for a little sparkle and done! Sorry I can't link to the Gina K. stamps as their site is moving and is offline for a few days.
Thanks for visiting today and love to read your kind comments.
LOVE it Betty! Aren't those Concord & 9th note-cards just fabulous! I hope you're having a wonderful Sunday! Hazel xx
