Mother’s Day Card




The Chantilly Paper Packet, acrylix Perfect Fit-Mom Stamp Set, and the Mojo Monday Blog inspired this Mother’s Day Card and not to mention, Mother’s Day is just around the corner. :)


I really love the spring colors in this set.  The colors are almost similar to the last project I posted.






Card Size: 5 ½ inches x 4 ½ inches


Cuts:
Base B&T paper cut @ 5 ½ inches x 4 ¼  inches
Ribbon B&T paper cut @ 1 inch x 3 inches
Cardstock cut @ 5 ¼ inches x 4 inches
Page 21 cricut <Circle1> @ 1 ¼ inches
Page 44 cricut <Rctngle1> @ 2 ¾ inches


 

Materials:
Acrylix Stamp Love Doily
Acrylix Stamp Perfect Fit-Mom

Instructions:
1.  Gather your paper packet, coordinating embellishments, and stamp sets.
2.  Take your card and round the corners with a corner punch
3.  Cut a B&T paper at 5 ½ inches x 4 ¼ inches and round the corner with a corner punch.  Tape to the base of the card.
4.  Cut cardstock at 5 ¼ inches x 4 inches.  Round the corners with a corner punch.  To make the stitches, use the “stitching” ruler to mark the holes.  Then remove the ruler and use a marker to have the illusion of the card has been sewn.  (Tip: the removal of the ruler provides a realistic sewn look).  Tape to the 5 ½ x 4 ¼ B&T base.
5.  Stamp the Love Doily image on a White Daisy Cardstock with Sunset Ink.  Then cut the image out with Scissors.  Tape onto cardstock.
6.  With the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge cricut <Rctngle1> @ 2 ¾ inches (Page 44).  Tape to the 5 ¼  x 4 Cardstock and cover half of the Doily stamped image.
7.  Cut a coordinating B&T paper @ 1 inch x 3 inches to make a ribbon.  Then use Scissors to make the ends of the ribbon or use a square punch.  Tape the ribbon over the B&T <Rctngle1>.
8.  Cut the “Zip Strip” from the B&T cardstock and align with the <Rctngle1> edge.
9.  Stamp “World’s Greatest” image with Cotton Candy Ink.  Then punch with a 2” Scallop Circle.  Tape over the paper ribbon.
10.  Cricut <Circle1> @ 1 ¼ inches (Page 21). Then stamp the “mom circle” image with Sunset Ink.  Adhere with 3-D tape.
11.  Add embelishments.
 

 Viola!  You have your Mother's Day Card!

Happy scrappin'!
