Mothers Day Cards

Happy Belated Mother's Day to all of the Mom's out there! I'm a little slow at getting these cards posted on my blog.  My card base for these is 4¾" x 6¾" (cut at 9½" x 6¾" & folded in half) this way, since they can tend to get a bit bulky, they should still fit into a 5¼" x 7¼" envelope. I used Kaisercrafts "Fairy Garden" paper collection for this card.  For this first card I cut a piece of mint green card stock measuring 4¾" x 6¾" for my card base. I distressed all of the papers on this card. For  my next layer I used the "Wishes" paper from the collection which I cut at 4½" x 6½" and the top layer I used the "Magical" paper from the collection cut at 4¼" x 6¼". I added Prima flowers and ribbon from my stash and cut out a small banner sentiment on my computer.

For this "Best Mom Ever" card I also used the Kaisercraft "Fairy Garden" paper collection. I used some pink card stock cut at 4¾" x 6¾" for my base layer. I also distressed all papers for this card. My next layer I used a mint green card stock cut at 4½" x 6½". I then cut a piece of the "Wishes" paper from the collection cut at 4¼" x 6¼" for my next layer. For the top layer I used the "Magical" paper cut at 4" x 6". I then fussy cut some of the flowers from the "Moonstone" paper which I popped up with foam tape and added a piece to the top left corner and bottom right corner. I made and printed out the "Best Mom Ever!" tag on my computer. 

For these next two cards I used Graphic 45's "Floral Shoppe" paper collection. I distressed all of the papers on these cards. The bottom layer I used the pink side of the "Verdant Blossoms" paper from the collection cut at 4¾" x 6¾". I used the green side of the "Midnight Medley" paper cut at 4½" x 6½". For the next layer I fussy cut some of the flowers from the "Midnight Medley" paper for the bottom right side of the paper and popped it up with foam pop dots. I then added some Prima flowers from my stash and printed out the banner sentiment on my computer which I also popped up with foam pop dots.

The next card is basically the same except I used a mint green card stock for the bottom base layer and pink card stock for the banner sentiment. 

Thanks for stopping by and I'd love to hear your comments! TFL!
