Dear scrappers,
I wanted to make a special card for my mom. So I started by choosing a nice sketch:
And work my way from there, then I went to choose a colors palette:
I really enjoy color palette challenges because they push me to think outside the box. And I knew these colors are nicely represented by the Cloud of Hope from Seguras Crafts printed papers (coming soon, stay posted) and who doesn’t love Star Wars. I choose the page with the most colors in this palette and which would go with my mom’s personality. She is very active and has a very strong personality, so very well represented by the contrast of the blue-peach pink in the papers I chose. My mom actually loves purple and mauve, but I think this contrast is more her:
I used the rectangle die from made-to-surprise interactive die set available at Seguras Crafts to die cut the printed paper layer. For the little dove tail I used a die from a Tonics set.
I used the Mothers love 6x8 stamp set for the cute little girl and mom image and the “I’ll always be your baby” sentiment for the tag. After I glued everything, I chose the embellishments to go with the color scheme and added rhinestones in Ocean Bliss to make the card more cheerful. I even added more rhinestones to the Prima rhinestone stickers to tie everything together.
For the inside, I chose the “Happy Mothers Day” sentiment from Seguras Crafts and stamped it on Petal Whisper Pink pearlescent cardstock. I later used a rectangular die to give it some texture and glued to the card base:
I made a little video of my process:
I hope you join me in checking Seguras Crafts and following the other amazing design team members.
