Happy Wednesday, everyone and I hope despite the dreary weather outside, you're all having a wonderful week, so far! Isn't the weather just awful at the moment? I've even had to switch the heating back on today...you wouldn't think it was spring!!
But it is spring and nearly the end of March, which means that this is the time we celebrate our Mums. Yes, this Sunday is Mother's Day and seeing as my Mum isn't too well at the moment, I thought I'd spoil her and make her a very special card.
I used
Craftwork Card's fabulous Botanical collection to make this card and I also came up with a slightly different look for this one. I love dimension in my cards and I still really like the easel card shape but I really wanted something different for my special card. And this is what I made...an easel card with a twist.
The base of the card, actually lies flat but I've then added a smaller easel card, to the base and inside this smaller card, is where you write your message. I'm so pleased with how it worked out and I hope you all like it too!
The flower is made using a
Craftwork Cards, Perfect Petals 1 and 2 Templates. It's quite time consuming as each petal is cut out by hand and layered to give the finished flower but as you can see, it gives the most wonderful result and is so worth all the effort.
And this is what the card looks like when it's completely flat....
Well, my cake and coffee break is over...so, I'm thinking maybe one more card before I collapse this evening!! lol
Thank you to everyone for your comments on my last post.
See you soon
Love Emma
