Mothers Day Cards

Hello fellow Crafters:) Hope everyone had a great weekend and a fabulous National Scrapbook Day. I found some time to craft this weekend, and made these two beautiful mothers day cards. At first glance they might look identical, but their slightly different lol. I made these Mothers Day cards to give out to my Mom and Mother in-law for Mothers Day.



The paper came from DCWV and also from I think it was a My Minds Eye paper stack (sorry I don't remember the name of the paper).  I used lots and lots of My Creative Time products for my card. I love, love, love the dies and stamps that Emma releases. Trust me, you need to get your hands on some of her products to play with:)lol


I cut the frame out from chipboard and then took some of my brand new Ferro Brenstein-Gold paint. OMG this paint is awesome! The picture doesn't do it justice. Not only is the paint a rich and shinny gold, it also leaves a bit of a granny residue to give it a rustic effect, totally awesome! I got this paint at Scrapbooking Made Simple, my new favorite crafting store to go to, I just wished I lived closer to them lol:) 


For the inside of my card I kept it simple.

Loved how my cards turned out, there chic, classy, and girly:)lol. 


Supplies used: All dies and stamps can be found at My Creative Time online store.
Stiched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Dies 
Stitched Postage Frame Die 
Lowercase Fun Dies 
More Gift Card Sentiments 
Rolled Flower Dies 
Stitched Leave Dies 
Ferro Berstein-Gold/Amber Gold paint can be found at Scrapbooking Made Simple

Hello fellow crafters, hope everyone is having a great day! Yay, I have another card to share with you guys today! I made this card to enter into a few challenges. Its a spring card:) Im so ready for spring to hit in full bloom in California:)lol. All the papers I used on my card were from my scrap drawer, yay me:)lol. Im proud of how my card turned out. I think it has a great spring feeling to it (thats what I was going for lol). Like how a nice spring day would be with a rainbow out:) I used Sketchy Friday's sketch #14 for the layout of my card.  Markers and Inks used To color in the rainbow I used regular Crayola markers.To color the cute little girl, I used my Spectrum Noir markers, PL2, LV2, LG3, CG4, GG1, BP1, CR2, TN3, and TN4.   I love, love, love, Emma's (My Creative Time) stamps. Her stamps and dies are Fabulous! I used a few of her sets in this card. The clouds are diecuts from the "Fly Away With Me Dies"...
