Happy Mothers Day.



I would like to wish all you lovely ladies out there a Happy Mothers Day.
Hope you are getting pampered and spoilt and making the most of it.

Thought I would share the card I made for my Mum for Mothers Day.
I got the inspiration for this card from Joanne Wardle in the February edition of Craft Stamper. It's a hidden message card. Joanne made a beehive with a lovely bee on top, a Fairy sitting on a toadstool and a gorgeous wedding cake. It's basically a tent fold card so you can create whatever design you want. As it was for Mothers Day I decided to make a vase of flowers and here it is.



I made a basic tent fold card which I sealed at the top except for a gap in the middle for the message strip.  I made up a vase template which I used to cut out the shape of the card. I covered the vase with some gorgeous glittery First Edition paper from the Isabelle pad.  I stamped the flowers onto some shimmery rainbow paper using Stazon. The hidden message and sentiment were computer generated.
I really enjoyed making this card and I'm sure I will be making more.

Well enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Thank you for visiting.
Hugs,
Pat xxa
