Happy Mother's Day!

I don't have a card for this holiday to share, but I do have another Thank You card done using the same round frame stamping and embossing made like my Artist Trading Coin in my last post.

 

I used Fusion's current sketch and added butterflies inspired by the photo. I used a different greeting this time, Thank You in an elegant script and gold embossing powder on the frame. I went with an oversized element for the horizontal band because I had an extra yellow label die cut and it looked cool to me so I cut a smaller label to mat it and anchor it with the patterns in this paper collection. I really like the corner punch on the base paper, too.

SUPPLIES:
* Coaster
* Prima Zephyr Patterned Card Stock Papers and DCWV Textured Weave Card stock, SU card stock
* Stamps: Inkadinkado Round Frame Stamp and Sentiment; Lawn Fawn Siggie stamp
* Ranger Embossing Powders Clear and Fine Gold
* Inks: Versafine Clair, Versamark
* Die Cuts and Punches: Spellbinders Classsic Circles and Labels dies, Sizzix Garden Greens Framelits, Martha Stewart Butterflies punch, Fiskers 3-way corner punch

I've left you with the rest of my shots. Love how the camera picks up the texture weave in the yellow card stock.

CHALLENGES:
1. Fusion Sketch and Butterfly Wreath Photo - Played both the sketch and used Butterflies.

2. Double D Challenge: Photo Inspiration Off to the Races with the KY Derby - I took inspiration in the photo's blues and pinks, flowers and garden greenery.

3. Stamping Sensations: In an English Country Garden - Did a more proper and standard card this time with flowered patterned papers and little butterflies and greenery. And my focal element, the round frame and sentiment, is stamped and embossed.
4. Pixie's Snippets Playground #352: AG with a Snippet -  I used paper snippets of the Prima paper from my last card to punch out my butterflies and cut my circle to stamp on, some green card stock snippets to die cut my greenery. Also my label dies underneath were snippets. Please put me in for the prize.
5. Outlawz Monday Greetings Apr.29-May12: Anything Goes
6. Crazy4Challenges C4C483: Flowers
7. HLS Anything Goes with Dies May Challenge - I used Spellbinders Labels dies and Classic Circles dies, Sizzix Garden Greens dies, and Martha Stewart Butterflies punch.

That's it for me today. Going to enjoy a delish Mother's Day meal in a bit prepared by my Honey and then visit with my daughter on the phone. Hope everyone is eating good and being pampered today. Enjoy it! xoxo
