Fine Art Floral Mother's Day Card

Mother's Day is less than a month away and it's important to celebrate the special women in our lives. I've been a powerhouse lately designing many Mother's Day cards for the special women in my life. I haven't yet decided which one will go to who but I am so excited to share them with you.

I used the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle and the 2021-2023 In Colors to create this card. These supplies will be available for order on May 4th. Make sure you add these products to your wish list!

Supplies

1 - 8 1/2"x 11" sheet of Pale Papaya cardstock

1 - 5"x 3 3/4" piece of Fine Art Floral DSP

1 - 5"x 3/4" piece of Polished Pink cardstock

1 - 1/2" strip of Basic White cardstock

Scrap of Basic White Cardstock

Polished Pink ink

Pale Papaya ink

Soft Succulent ink

Memento Black Ink

Hand-Penned Petals Bundle

Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set

Instructions

Take the 8 1/2"x11" sheet of Pale Papaya cardstock and cut it down to 4 1/4"x11" and score it at 5 1/2" along the long side.

I took the scrap piece of Basic White cardstock and in Memento Black I stamped the outline of the floral image. I then used the corresponding stamps and 'colored' it in. I used Polished Pink ink for the larger flowers, stamping the largest one at full strength and the other two, I stamped off on scrap paper first. I then used Pale Papaya for the smallest flowers, and Soft Succulent for the leaves.

I then took the strip of Polished Pink cardstock and with the scallop border die in the Hand-Penned Petal dies I ran it through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine. I also used the outline die for the floral image to cut it out.

I adhered the scallop border the left side of the piece of Fine Art Floral DSP. I then adhered it to the front of the card.

I then took the 'Mother's Day' sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set and stamped it in Memento Black on the 1/2" strip of Basic White cardstock. I cut it to the length that I wanted and I used the Tailored Tag punch to cut the banner edge. You can use the Banner Pick A Punch or you can cut it by hand.

I used Stampin' Dimensionals to adhered the floral image to the front of the card. I then adhered the sentiment to the front of the card sliding the left edge of the sentiment underneath the floral image.

Step It Up

A great way to elevate your card would be to heat emboss the sentiment or add some bling with matching rhinestones or pearls colored with blends.

I am obsessed with the Fine Art Floral DSP. It is probably my favorite DSP from the mini catalogue. I love how this paper seems to go with everything.

Are you excited for the new catalogue?

Happy Paper Crafting!
