Clearly for Mother - GCA130 & LNS115
Hello all!!! I have another Mother's day card to show you today. As you know this is the theme for this week's GCA and for the Late Night Stampers group I belong to.
Actually, for me, this card turned out to be quite CAS!! Doesn't happen very often, but I used the sketch from the Create with Connie and Mary blog that just said CAS to me. And, I was able to use up some scraps that I had laying around! Bonus!!!
The card base is Whisper White, layered with a piece of the Love Impressions textured dsp (still available in the Occasions mini). The panel was cut at 3 3/4 x 5 to leave some of the card base showing.
For the main image I decided to open up, and use, the Beveled windowpanes I've had since the Occasions mini came out!! I also used the stamp set, Clearly for You, which coordinates with the windowpanes. Pretty in Pink satin wraps and holds the windowpane to the card. These are tricky little things to play with, but I do like the end result! I used a piece of Crumb Cake seam binding around the know and used a hat pin (non SU!, but we no longer carry these!) through the middle.
Not sure how well you can see in the photo, but I also used my Tea Stain distress ink around the edges and on the crown.
Happy Stamping!!!
