Happy Mother's Day!

A few last minute Mother's Day cards featuring all The Greetery products!  I paired many blooms with my robins and wrens and the Market Basket dies.  This first card has pieces from the Botanticuts Tulips that I made earlier in the month.  The grey cardstock really looks like a metal basket...and I enjoy the pairing with the patterned paper.


This second card features a background made with Salvaged Patina Distress Ink spray stain and a few other spray inks.  The blooms are from the Budding Beauties Summer stamps and dies.  


This last card is also a background made with the Salvaged Patina Distress ink spray stain and some more of the Budding Beauties Summer florals.  I truly hope that your Mother's Day was filled with good times and happy memories.

Wishing My Aunt a Very Happy Mother's Day Featuring Taylored Expressions Butterfly Wishes Stamps, Stencils and Dies


I busted out my Waffle Flower Tulips stamps to use this very timely sentiment to create a card to send to my aunt on Mother's Day.  I went full cheery yellow in the theme and love how this turned out!


 Now, my only remaining uncertainty is whether the postman will deliver it in time!

Happy Mother's Day Featuring Taylored Expressions Butterfly Wishes Stamps, Stencils and Dies

I have had so much fun playing with the Taylored Expressions Butterfly Wishes Stamps, Stencils and Dies!  This delightful set brims with ideas and quick, easy cards are the results.  Today, I'm sharing cards made with the stencils and some die cut vellum butterflies.  So pretty!




 Quick and easy!  These cards are so much fun that I just can't help myself from making more!

Mother's Day Card Featuring Taylored Expressions Picked Posies


I had so much fun coloring these pretty picked posies stamped with Taylored Expressions Picked Posies stamps.  I stamped onto white cardstock and colored using my Inktense watercolor pencils.  The results were so vibrant... it makes me wonder why I don't use these pencils more often.  Ultimately, I fussy cut the florals out .  The backgrounds were made by white heat embossing the same florals in the corners.  The MOM sentiment was die cut using my The Greetery Alphabuds dies.  Simple and pretty.  



 I decided a quick little stamped envelop would make a pretty match.  These two cards will also go to the store for sale and brighten someone's Mother's Day celebration.

Mother's Day Card Featuring Altenew 3D Flower Dies


I recently picked up both the Altenew Peony Dream and Garden Picks 3D dies.  Of course, the first thing I did with these dies is cut a bunch of flowers.  I didn't even know what I was going to use the flowers for.  So, of course, I used them to make a pile of Mother's Day cards.  I paired the florals with a background cut using Taylored Expressions Pierced Circles cutting plate.  The crisp white frame was cut using WPlus9 Sunshine Layers die.  Oldie, but a goodie!




 Wow!  I really like how each of them is different and I truly can't find my favorite.
