Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for April 2016. We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our new 2016 Blog Hop monthly themes. This month we are featuring projects that are all about our families. This is a great time of year to think about what to make for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or upcoming graduations. And, family vacations are just around the corner… how would you want to remember those special family moments? We hope to provide you with lots of ideas and that you enjoy our creations.
You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below. The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects!
Today I have a card that I created that I think would be perfect for Mother’s Day! Now, I know that the Bloomin’ Love Stamp Set and coordinating Love Blossom Designer Series Paper Stack seemed only perfect for Valentine’s Day, but these fabulous colors and patterns could be used for so many more things! I decided that it would make the perfect Mother’s Day card as well, especially since telling your parent’s how much you love them is always top of the list on special days like Mother’s or Father’s Day! I created the background from using the Timeless Textures Stamp Set and stamping it in Crumb Cake all over the card base.
I cut these sweet hearts out of the Love Blossom Designer Series Paper Stack and added a bit dimension by using Dimensionals on the center heart for some pop! No, these hearts do not fit exactly in any of our punches, so I my trusty Paper Snips were the answer to crisp clean edges. Sticking to the Blushing Bride, Rose Red, and Crumb Cake was a breeze for today’s card and I simply love how it all came together. Now, I know you must be wondering where I used the Rose Red, well inside the card I added the sentiment ‘World’s Best Mother‘ using the stamp from A Nice Cuppa Stamp Set and a piece of the same Love Blossom Designer Series Paper Stack on the inside that the outside hearts came from. I also used out Extra Large Oval Punch to frame the sentiment on Whisper White cardstock!
