Hey, hey, hey!!! Today I have this lovely Mother's day card that I wanted to share. This is being submitted into the FCCB Color Challenge. I really love how it turned out and was quite surprised at myself. It's been a while since I have done any cards. I needed a break from life and now I'm back w/ mojo flowing! :)
The challenge was to use purple, turquoise and green in the project. I just used all three colors and went bold! These are some of my mom's favorite colors, so this card will be going to her! I used Wild Card cartridge for the argyle design. I love argyle!!!
The stamp set is from Emma from My Creative Time. It's called "Mom You Rock." I bought this last year and used it a few times. I love her stamps! The sparkles are, of course, stickles! :) All the card stock comes from CTMH.
The paper flowers and butterfly are from Close To My Heart. I inked them with matching CTMH ink in Dutch Blue, Green Garden and Hydrangea. The awesome purple polka dot button comes from Purple Pumpkin. This button is a size large and measures about 1"...maybe slightly over. This size or smaller is perfect for cards. When I first bought from them I didn't know the difference. I purchased mostly XL buttons. I haven't used any of those yet, bc I'm unsure how to fit them onto cards. Those buttons are about 1.5". I think those buttons were made for scrapbook pages. But we'll see.....
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed! :) Have a great day!!!
