Card for Mom
I am going to visit my family…. Had to make a card for my
mom!
I used a digi stamp from artist Ruth Davis. Sorry, I don't know which web site it came from. I printed the digi on Stampin' Up Whisper White cardstock and used colored pencils to color the cute house. The patterned paper is Graphics 45 BotanicaBella. I saw a sentiment I really liked somewhere? Could I find it again? NO! So I made my own, 'Home is where your mom is' with the computer for a sentiment on the inside. It doesn't matter how old I am, I always feel like I am in grade school when I give Mom something I've made. AND she still gushes over everything I make. Aren't we silly!

that I fell in love with. Mine is a little different in that I didn't use a sentiment or ribbon slide and I also made it reusable.
I used:
Whisper
White Aviary stamp set
Marina
Mist cs Midnight
Muse ink
Real
Red cs Crumb
Cake Ink
Metallic/Neutral brads Square Lattice TIEF
Clear
photo corners Bashful Blue ribbon
Cut Marina Mist 4
¼ x 11, score at 5 ½
4 ½ x 2,
emboss with Square Lattice TIEF
Whisper White 4
x 5, cut Top Note
4 pieces
3 ¾ x 5
Tip: Add adhesive to the embossed piece in small
patches to avoid tearing.
1) Adhere embossed piece
to bottom of card front, trim excess.
2) Apply ribbon with
adhesive only in one or two places. Wait to tie the knot.
3) Stamp images. For the
hanging cage, draw the line with a marker and a ruler.
4) Add brad to top of the
hanging cage.
5) Adhere stamped piece
with Dimensionals and tie the knot.
6) Put one photo corner on
each of the corners of one of the 3 ¾ x 5 pieces and adhere to the inside of
the card. Add the rest of the Whisper White.
7) Adhere small stickers
to let recipient know this is a reusable card. I used clear return address labels
and placed them on the 3 ¾ x 5 pieces on the bottom left corner. My sticker reads, “This is
a reusable card. Please remove the portion that was meant for you and use this
card again.”
