Mother's Day


Happy Mother's Day to all you Moms out there <3  I made this card for my Mom using the new April 2014 Release from Wplus9 SPRING BLOOMS stamps and dies set. I also used the Wplus9 STRICTLY SENTIMENTS 4.


1. To begin I first cut an A2 size watercolor paper then very slightly watercolored it with Distress Ink Milled Lavender for a hint of the color, then let it dry for a while.
2. Next, I die-cut the images from SPRING BLOOMS and arranged it and adhere them on my watercolor panel.


3. Then I stamped the sentiment from STRICTLY SENTIMENTS 4 using my Distress Marker in Vintage Photo after swiping the marker on the sentiment then I dabbed it with my paint brush with very little water to get the watercolor look.
4. For the final touches I then added some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh 6mm Marshmallow & 4mm Gold.


Here's the full view of the card.


I hope you enjoyed!
