May is crunch time at my house for card making--a couple birthdays, graduations, Mother's Day, Thank You cards for work.
Mother's Day, in particular, always sneaks up on me!
Today's post is a show-and-tell. More information about these cards to follow.
Starting with not-my-favorite. I made this card in 2 hours because it HAD to get into the mail on Wednesday afternoon. I like the papers and the birds, but I don't love the fabric flowers. I can't quite put my finger on why. The colors are right, but something is off about them. Probably should have used felt flowers.
This is a double Z fold pop up card for Mother's Day. Finished size is 6" x 5.5".
Splitcoast stampers has a good tutorial, and check out Pinterest for more ideas.
The birds are from Jolee's Boutique, they're called "stitched colorful birds."
Now this card IS my favorite. My daughter and I purchased the vector flowers from GraphikCliparts to create her grad cap. Since it's a vector design it scales to any size, thus, this graduation cap spring fold card.
I cut the footprints with my Silhouette Cameo. They are MINUSCULE!
That's all for now!
