Thanks For Being There, Mom

Hi Crafty Friends,
I'm so excited that spring is finally here! I am bringing you a beautiful NEW floral stamp from Brass & Bliss called Hellebore Floral 37014. I colored it in yellow to match the NEW Sweet As Honey 6x6 Paper Pad. I used the sentiments from the Brass & Bliss Mother's Day Stamp Set 3417 so I'm ready for Mother's Day coming up soon!

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What color would you color this Hellebore Floral?
A: Me? Besides yellow....subscribe to the blog and you will see soon!

Step #1: I started my card by stamping the beautiful Hellebore Flower on white cardstock and coloring it with yellow Copic markers to match the honeycomb and floral patter paper.

Step #2: I used Brass & Bliss Classic Nested Oval Dies 5004D to create an oval frame for my flowers. I die cut my background pattern paper with Brass & Bliss Nested Rectangle Small Stitch Die 5013D and mounted it on matching yellow cardstock to my oval frame. 

Step #3: Then, I stamped my Mother's Day sentiment on the right edge to leave room for the Hellebore.

Step #4: I mounted the flowers on off to the left of my oval frame and centered it on the middle of my pattern paper. I finished my card by adding sparkling gems to the white spaces because every mother needs some bling.

Easter Wishes

Hi Crafty Friends,
This Nordic Bunny from Poppy Stamps has an elegant Nordic Basket filled with flowers and eggs to give out for Easter.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What color do you like to make your eggs?
A: Me? I love tie dye ones!

Step #1: I started by putting together the Nordic Happy Bunny Die in a purple outfit using Poppy Stamps Twilight Purple 6x6 Paper Pad. Next, I used the same shades of purple to make a bunch of eggs and flowers with the Nordic Basket Die and lined the top of the basket in purple too.

Step #2: I arranged the basket and Nordic Happy Bunny in the center of my card on a plaid background from the Memory Box Amenone 6x6 Paper Pad.

Step #3: I finished my card by added the Poppy Stamps Easter Wishes Die to the top and bottom of my card and arranging my flowers in a diagonal across the card.
