Wonderful Mother Card

With Mother's Day coming next month, I was again inspired to create another Mother's Day card. This one is for my mother in law. I began by stamping, coloring and die cutting flowers and leaves from the Lovely Blooms stamp set. Using double sided foam adhesive I layered the images to give them dimension as I adhered them to the card front.

Speaking of the card front, if you look closely, you can see that I only embossed the top part of the white cardstock. I did this by only placing part of the paper inside the embossing folder. I then used my Scor Pal to add two horizontal lines to give me a space to stamp the sentiment. The sentiment is stamped using the new Simply Relative stamp set. I love how you can mix and match the words to create just the right combination.
