Mother's Day Cards & More

HaPpY MoThErS DaY!!!!!!

I want to share with you the Mother's Day cards that I have created this week :) 
There are many "mothers" in my life, so I thought I'd celebrate them all!  These cards go out to my mom, mother-in-law, sister-in-law (first time mom!!), grandmother & aunts. I'm also sharing a baby card, thank you card and a gift!




This card was inspired by an older sketch that I used HERE.  I used Lucy & Chantilly papers to make the rosettes and the Perfect Fit Mom stamp set. 


This card uses Freshly Made Sketch #85.  I used my cuttlebug to emboss the Buttercup cardstock and ran hollyhock ink over the dots.  The papers are Chantilly and the sentiment is from Perfect Fit Mom.

This card features the Claire paper pack and Perfect Fit Mom.  I added some Colonial White Rosette Ribbon and some Pearl Opaques to this card.


How about some Dream Pop!!!  This card was made on a White Daisy Die-Cut Card with Dream Pop papers & Perfect Fit Mom.



Using another Die-Cut Card, this one features For Always paper that I colored Cotton Candy.  I used the "direct to paper" method to color the paper pink.  Silver Shimmer trim is the perfect embellishment for this card, which also uses Perfect Fit Mom.

Today we are not just celebrating moms, but my (hubby's) cousin finally had her baby girl yesterday, so she gets a special Baby/Mother's day card.  This card uses Dream Pop cardstock with Lucy papers.  I used the New Arrival stamp set along with A Typeface.  I used the masking technique to make the sentiment 2 colors.

My brother-in-law and his fiance are hosting a Mother's Day Brunch, so I made this card as a Thank You to them!  They really are fabulous party throwers & hosts :)  I created a starburst out of diagonal shaped Clementine paper strips, then added the Clementine Canvas shape on top!


Last, but not least, I want to share with you the canvas I made for my mom (well parents really) for Mother's Day.  I created it with her, so that she could pick out the colors she wanted.  This canvas was made through Jewel Kade!  This is a gift from my Brother (& family) and myself (& family).

You've been a busy stamper! So glad you took time to make a lovely card with our sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.
Love the little elephant in two-tone! Super-cute! Thanks for playing along with us at the Color Dare this week. :)
Wow! You've been busy. Thanks for joining us (twice) at Color My Heart. I'm going back and forth over which is my favorite and I simply can't decide. I'm sure every one of the recipients, both mothers and teachers, will be overjoyed to receive such a thoughtful gift.

Both pink cards are great--I think I especially like the one you "inked pink". Great idea which you could recreate in any colour. Thanks for playing along at Color My Heart this week.

Your cards are beautiful, Jen. I like the elephant one the best. Pink and grey go so well together! Thanks for joining us again at Color My Heart.

~*~ Holiday Blog Hop ~*~

Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop. I made a couple of things to share with you today. I created this lovely paper tree by punching a LOT of 1 1/4" circles of Mistletoe Paper, then used pearl floral pins to secure them in rows to a styrofoam cone.  As I neared the top, I had to use some adhesive so that they did not flare out, but sit in the cone shape.  At the top, I stamped 3 stars and adhered them to the top of the cone.  Supplies: Styrofoam cone Pearl Floral Pins CTMH Mistletoe level 2 paper CTMH Mistletoe Creative Basics paper D1320 Shining Star Stamps I created a second paper tree using instructions from Tracey Mason .  I created an accordion flower with a stamped sentiment for my topper on this one.   Supplies: Styrofoam Cone CTMH Mistletoe Level 2 papers K& Co paper D1380 Just for the Holidays Stamps I created a total of four paper trees to sit upon my mantel!  The "subway art" was a free printable from eighteen25 ....

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining me for another weekend of Blog Hoppin Fun!   If you have come here from Tina's Blog , you are on the right path!  Keep on hoppin until the end :) April Showers is our theme, and I went with the "shower" theme and made baby cards for baby showers!  I am addicted to making these stacked present cards lately!  I first saw one that my friend Jayma made, who found it on Vicki's blog.  Recently, I saw a couple cute ones on Haley's blog too.   I cut my paper strips at 1.25 tall x 3, 2.25 and 1.5 long.  Add a ribbon down the center, or just a bow on top and you're set!  I used the Sweet Baby stamp set and Polka Dot Alphabet for my sentiments.   Now I'm all set for the next baby shower..... (though I don't know any preggos right now).   This design is also great for Birthday Cards too!!!!  I made two each of these cards and stamped Birthday sentiments on them :) Supplies: BOY: Miracle Level 2 Sweet Baby...
