Mother’s Day Crafting

Well it’s Mother’s Day here in Australia; I’ve had beakfast in bed and received some lovely goodies from Miss K and the hubby; now I’m getting a bit of crafting time before we head off to see The Hustle at Doncaster Gold Class.

First up is a card for Happy Little Stampers – Anything Goes with Dies.

I used a layered floral cover die set from Altenew, which is sponged with Catherine Pooler Inks in Roe pettal and Eucalyptus. The sentiment is also from Altenew ‘Label love’. I mounted both dies onto a black card base to really make it pop.

I love the contrast on this card with the black background.

Next is a card for a brand new challenge over at AAA Cards Birthday #1 Anything Goes and The Male Room Challenge #110 Add an Age.

I made an alcohil ink background with my AI Pearls, added some silver foil and then die cut the number 16 from the AI panel and popped it up in a circle window. I stamped the sentiment in Momento black in. The die and sentiment is from Stampin Up ‘Number of years’.

Now I just need to wait for someone to turn 16 to be able to use this beauty!

My last card for today fits 2 challenges -> Just Us Girls #487 – Bold Letters and CAS(E) this Sketch #321.

This card was super quick to make. I used some Stampin Up papers in rainbow colours cut into 2cm pieces and attache them to my card base in rough overlapping style. I heat embossed the setiment from CAS-ual Frodays ‘Shenanigans’. I added a trio of vellum daisies with some bling to their centres and the card was done.

I love how fun this card looks.

Thanks for looking and enjoy your day.

Hey there! I’m a card-making enthusiast with a passion for creativity that knows no bounds. Currently, I’m fortunate to be a part of four fantastic international card design teams, where I get to explore my craft and connect with fellow artists from all corners of the globe. It’s amazing how the world of card making can bring people together, and I’m constantly inspired by the diversity of styles and ideas that come my way. Beyond my card-making adventures, I lead a pretty busy life in the learning and development field, where I work full time as a Learning Lead. I thrive on helping others grow and reach their full potential, and it’s a role that keeps me on my toes and constantly learning. When I’m not immersed in the world of work or crafting, you can find me on the netball court, coaching and sharing my love for the game with a bunch of amazing individuals. So, whether I’m crafting, guiding professional development, or coaching on the court, I’m all about embracing lifes colorful and creative possibilities! Thanks for stopping by my corner of the web, and I hope you enjoy exploring my card creations and more.
