Mother's Day Card

This is going to be one of my Mother's Day cards that I am going to give. I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the card background. I then used the Garden Green chalk to enhance the leaves. The butterfly I stamped in Petal and then used my blending pen to give it a watercolor look. I then used my waterbrush to fill in the spaces with Garden Green and Baby Pink. I cut out the butterfly and then added some Prisma Glitter in places. I didn't want to overdue the glitter. I then stamped the saying in Garden Green on the Sweat Leaf paper. The stamp set is the March Stamp of the Month "Butterfly Wings."
I feel like this card needs something else but then I wanted a simple card. I tried ribbon and it just seemed like too much with the embossing and the glitter. If you have any ideas please post them. I would love to hear them.

Mother's Day Layout

Wow! Here I am posting again! I know that I have been taking awhile posting stuff but it has been a very busy time around here. I am going to try to do better!
I am all caught up in my son and daughter's albums so I am pre-making layouts for pictures that I know I will be taking. This is a layout that I made for Mother's Day pictures. I really love this paper pack and stamp set. They are both so versatile.
I used the Unforgettable Paper Pack and the Aspiration stamp set. I used the Foundry Bookplates. The colors are Juniper, Cocoa, Sorbet and Blush. Please enjoy!

Cards

Here are 3 cards that my Girl Scout Daisy Troop is going to make. They will be making 10 of each card. We will either be giving these to our local nursing home or sending them to the troops
This is a 5x7 card. I used the Unforgettable Paper Pack. I love this paper! I used the Aspiration Stamp set. The colors are Juniper, Cocoa, Sorbet and Tulip.
This is a standard size card. I used the That's Amore Paper Pack. The stamp set is an old stamp of the month that has all different greetings on it. The colors are Cocoa, Tulip and Blush.

I used the Stardust Paper Pack on this card. The stamp set is a really old stamp set called Kid Art Party. The stars were made on my Cricut with the George Cartridge. The colors are: Moonstruck, Honey and Topiary.
