Mothers Day Card

Mothers day is always a great time to bring out the floral stamps. This one from stampin up called Stippled Blossoms is my favourite at the moment. Sentiment on the front is printed out from MDS,
Inside it is a pop up card using the teacup from the Tea Shoppe set. Small butterflies are from Papillion potpourri.
Ink is rose red stamped off twice to give the pale shade then full strength for the darker shades.

 Close up of the card. Next time I will pop the front roses up on dimensionals to give some depth
Side of card showing the simple pop up mechanism. I scored the outside card leaving a 1/16th gap in the middle to make folding over the inside card easier.

Stippled Blossoms

My daughter convinced me to get this SU 2 step stamp set. I wasn't convinced I liked it until I started stamping with it. It makes beautiful cards, this first one I got a bit carried away stamping everything but the second card inspired by a card I saw on pinterest and it was perfect to give to an elderly volunteer I know.
