A Bun in the Oven Mother's Day Card

My daughter-in-love, Mary is adding another grandchild to the Krueger clan in November and there's a rumor it may be a girl! Finally, a girl! I made her a sweet and punny card for Mother's Day.

I used Lawn Fawn Plus One, Gingham Backdrops and Penelope's Blossoms stamp sets with Stitched Circle and Rectangle Stackables sets.




The inside sentiment is an older Hero Arts wood mount stamp. I just love the font! I added some more Penelope's Blossoms on the inside as well.

Happy Mother's Day to all who have ever nurtured and loved a child!

Thanks so much for your sweet comments, they make me smile!

A Bicycle Themed Mother's Day Card

I pinned this card more than 2 years ago and I finally found it again to use as inspiration for a  Mother's Day card for my sister.

It's very clean and simple and I'm happy with how it turned out! I love the Hero Arts bicycle stamp that was used on the original card. I paired it with a Simon Says Stamp sentiment from Favorite Flowers and a heart-shaped balloon from the Lawn Fawn Party Balloons die set.

Thanks for stopping by!

Another Mother's Day card

For this card I used the sentiment from Lawn Fawn's Happy Mother's Day with flowers from Penelope's Blossoms. This time I used a variety of inks from Simon Says Stamp and Hero Arts.

I kept it very clean and simple with just some sweet Lemon Lawn Trimmings tied in a bow.

Thank you so much for your sweet comments!

A Mother's Day Card

I really have been making cards lately, just not many I can share yet. 

I lost my beautiful mom many years ago and my sweet mother-in-law has also gone to be with Jesus; so on Mother's Day I honor very special women who inspire me with their lives and ability to love others unconditionally. This includes my 2 daughters-in-love, my amazing sister and her daughter-in-love and my wonderful aunt.

For this card I used Lawn Fawn's Happy Mother's Day mini stamp set along with the Picket Fence Border, Grassy Border and Stitched Rectangle Lawn Cuts. I used some Lawn Fawn ink as well; Freshly Cut Grass, Fake Tan, Wild Rose, Sunflower, Mermaid and Black Licorice. 

As I'm looking at this now it really bothers me that I missed adding a black center to one of the flowers. That was fixed before I mailed this card to my aunt!

I'll be back with some more cards for special women tomorrow!

Happy Mother's Day

I hope everyone is enjoying a lovely day! With any luck I will be filling some terra cotta pots with pretty plants today, I don't have any plans beyond that. (big smile!)

I made a quick CAS card:

Lawn Fawn- Mother's Day and Simon Says Stamp- Flower Friend

Hero Arts inks- Soft Granite, Soft Pool

Lawn Trimmings Vivid Twine

And I made one that was a little less quick:

Lawn Fawn- Mother's Day, Blissful Botanicals, Petite Florals

Blissful Botanicals Lawn Cuts

Studio Calico - Huey's Mask Intertwined Circles

To get the pattern on the orange panel I first applied Dried Marigold Distress ink evenly over the panel. Then using the mask I sprayed with a mixture of water and Perfect Pearls powder.

Happy Mother's Day
