Happy Mother's Days: A Floral Card



My momma's favorite color & birthstone are both purple so that's where I went with this Mother's Day card. I wanted something simple and elegant, but with lots of fun layers & die cuts. 



I went ahead and cut my card base, layering pieces, and most of the die cuts. I went with a standard A2 card 1/4” downstep for layering pieces. 
 I wanted to mount some sort of dimensional die cut or embellishment on my 3 squares, and decided on Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch. If your not familiar, these are stamps & coordinating dies. After stamping and die cutting 3 of each desired size, I used a petal roller for dimension.

Put together the little postage stamp embellishments & begin Assembly


Then it was time to decide on a sentiment. I changed the sketch around a few times to compensate for sentiment placement. I ended up going with an embossed title on my go-to die, labels 14. 

Finally, I mounted the card onto its base & its ready to go!
