Mother's Day Florals

 I'm pretty proud of myself that I actually got Mother's Day cards out in the mail this year! I was able to create a few extra cards really quickly with some beautiful matching floral plates.

The flower image is from an old Spellbinders Glimmer of the Month plate, called Card Front Floral. I love a single image that can take up the entire card! It makes my job so much easier. There is also a matching stencil set that was used to color the image, but unfortunately it may be sold out. The image is large enough that any coloring option will work here.

This card uses the Glimmer Hot Foil system for the outline of the flower with a dark gold foil. The flower is colored by ink blending Distress Ink colors Kitsch Flamingo with Squeezed Lemonade. The leaves use a blending combo of Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint, and some Cracked Pistachio on the edges.

The sentiment is put together from a Spellbinders set called Colorful Expressions Sentiments, which I paired with Champagne foil cardstock from C9.

The blue flower was ink blended with Salvaged Patina and Dusty Concord. I also switched the foil to be silver on this card.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're able to get those Mother's Day cards sent in time.

Bright Pattern Play Cards

 I have something bright and colorful to share today! I received the new Pattern Play dies and had to dive in immediately...

For my first card, I followed the pattern outline on the large plate.

I used my favorite bright colors with just a touch of light pink. All of the cardstock is from Concord and 9th's variety pack.

My second card was born with the leftovers from my die cutting session.

And even a third card, again born out of leftover bits that were cut...

All of the cards use the same sentiment. The 'hello' die is cut from champagne cardstock and is from the True Story die collection.

I hope I've brightened your day :)
