Caardvarks Sketch Challenge

I've been making lots of cards, mostly Mother's Day ones, for my daughter Jo to take to work and sell for me. I'd already made these when I saw this week's Caardvarks Hero Arts Sketch challenge and I think these resemble the sketch enough to qualify...OK, if you turn the 2nd card around it looks something like it anyway!


For this card I used my JustRite Stamper to spell out Mum and used the tiny letter set to make the greeting around it, then cut it out using a Nestabilities scallop circle. I used some gorgeous Christina Re flocked paper for my background.........click on the photo for a better view as it really is yummy paper! I used Nestabilities label one die for the black piece and added a large flower, burgundy ribbon and little butterfly embellishment.

For my second card I used the same JustRite Stamper greeting and a Stampin Up flower and background stamp. Fiskars border punch was used for the side of the black cardstock piece and satin ribbon woven through the slots. Added a few pink Kaiser rhinestones.
