Pink and Brown for Mom!

Mother's day is really sneaking up on me.  This is one of the cards I am sending out this year.  I love pink and brown together.

I am really sorry that the Bordering On Romance set is retiring, the flowers are just so pretty and so easy to work with.  They look great on this card don't you think?

Short post today--too many things going on!

Paper: Soft Suede, Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla and DP

Second Post today!

If you are looking for the Try Stamping on Tuesday Challenge it is the previous post HERE.  I could not resist playing along with the Splitcoaststamper's color challenge today--the colors are white, tangerine tango and lucky limeade--with an added challenge of adding a tag!  Fun!  Here is my card.

I so love bright cards.  And this is definitely one.   But so pretty--especially in person.

Stamps: Bordering on Romance, Million-Dollar Moments
Paper: Lucky Limeade, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White, DP
Ink: Basic Black
Other: white ribbon, markers, tasteful trim die, tangerine tango ribbon, scallop ribbon punch

Short and sweet--happy today!

Mother's Day

Thought I would share a few Mother's day cards with you today. One is a cute technique with acetate on the front! I love the concept--the colors I chose, not so much! I usually love bright colors but for some reason I was not happy with this. But as I said, I love the concept.  The herbs are stamped on the acetate with white stazon.. 

Stamps: Herb Expressions, Messages for Mom
Paper: Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Lucky Limeade
Ink: Basic Black, White Stazon
Other: Scallop Trim Border, Beautiful Butterflies Embosslit, Black Marker


And then a more muted one.  I am so excited to know that this stamp set was carried over from the Occasions mini!  It is so pretty and so easy to work with.  If you missed it during the mini you can still get it now!

Stamps:  Bordering on Romance. Messages for Mom
Paper: Pear Pizazz, So Saffron, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White
Ink: Basic Black
Other: markers, pearls

Hope your week is going well.
