Mother's Day Card with Dotty For You
I'm back! Finally finished with the softball season at school. Well, almost. I still have a lot of paperwork to do but at least I don't have to spend hours up at the field. The team had a great season and I'm sort of sad to see it end but I'm ready to get back to a somewhat normal life.
I sat down tonight to see what challenges I've been missing. This week over at Heart 2 Heart the challenge is to make a Mother's Day card. That is something I need to get done! Also, over at the 4 Crafty Chicks, the challenge was to make a card using a stamp for the sentiment only. So, I incorporated those two challenges along with the sketch from Skipping Stones Sketch #127.
Here is my card! I used the Dotty For You paper from Close To My Heart. This Buttercup and Grey Wool pattern stripe was a piece I had not used yet.
I used CTMH's Color Ready Seam Binding Ribbon with Grey Wool ink to match my paper. I scrunched a piece after dying the ribbon and used my craft heater to heat set the scrunch. I set it with Liquid Glass and added a pearl to the center. My flowers were cut from the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge using the <Flower8> setting at 2 1/2", 2 1/4" and 2". I layered them using a piece Foam Tape.
My stamped sentiment is from the set 4 My Friend (D1510).
