I couldn't let the holiday go by without one more Mother's Day card! I sent this one to my daughter.
I made the background with Distress Paints in Worn Lipstick, Dried Marigold, and Mustard Seed that I then stamped over with a crackled stamp from the Tim Holtz Stamp and Stencil Set called "Basketweave, Checkerboard, Vintage Roses THMM119" and then uses the basketweave stencil bit from the same set. After the background was done, I cut it out with the Tim Holtz "Stacked Deckle" die to make the card front and then backed it in brown cardstock.
I made the Tim Holtz die set "Artsy Stems" the focal point of the card. I cut the dies in mixed media cardstock and colored them with Distress Spray Stains in the colors: Fossilized Amber, Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold, Spiced Marmalade, Crackling Campfire, Saltwater Taffy, Picked Raspberry, Spun Sugar, and Worn Lipstick.
Luckily, I have a "Happy Mother's Day" retired die from Crafter's Companion in my stash that fit the bill for in front of the flowers that I put on with its shadow die with 3D gel. Lastly, I added Tim Holtz Idea-ology Hardware Heads to the corners.
I'm entering this in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Simon Says Stencil It.
Thanks for looking!
