PSC30: Handmade Flowers for Mom

This weeks challenge is to make a card for mom with hand made flowers.

This is a hard one for me to do as I lost my mother 3 years ago. But I always

take flowers and hand made card to her resting place on Mothers day.

So, here is the card that I made for her.

My mother loved purple so I chose purple for her this year. I used my border

embosser to make the flowers in the corner. For the lacy edge I used one of 

Martha Stewarts edge punch. I love her punches. I layed a solid piece of  purple

over top so that just the scallops showed.

Here you get a much better look at the embossed flowers and the lacy edge.

My oval was cut with my Bigkicks and oval spellbinders cutter. I then ran it

through my Dotted Swiss embossing folder for more texture. The flowers were

stamped and fussy cut. I layed the leaves flat and placed pop dots on the flower

to lift it off the page some.

Here you can see that I put swirls under the oval, punched out a butterfly, again 

using Martha Stewart's punch and hand cut the sentiment tag and used black

stickers for the word Mom. I know that if my mother was her she would absolutely

love this card.
