Prepare for showers of flowers this month.
Mother's Day is around the corner.
Do you remember those sweet hand drawn cards you gave Mom?
Let's make her cry again this year...with tears of nostalgia.
4 diverse card personalities.
My focus was to use color groupings, and flowers of course.
The supplies can be eclectic and endless:
Papers, all types
Flowers
Embellishments
Fibers and ribbons
Gel Press prints
Glitter, mica, etc...
"Instant relatives" photos
Inks
Adhesives
<Don't forget the one-of-a-kind>
Here is a shot of my stash for this project.
I challenged myself to use a standard 4.25" x 5.5" card. Adding papers and ephemera in a collage format.
My pink choices:
My natural tones:
My bohemian:
My modern yellow:
I adjusted my choices as I went along. Like adding mica glitter to this resin flower:
Or even mica flakes to the inked open circle:
Don't forget you can ink or paint these shabby roses to fit your color scheme:
Now you can customize a Mother's Day card to fit each Mom in your life.
The finished 4 cards:
The soft pink:
The naturalistic with photo:
The Bohemian with fibers:
The modern yellow:
Thank you for stopping by.
Please share with us what you create.
Ciao for now,
