Mam Mother's Day Card

 


I have made an 8x8in white card. I matt and layered the top and bottom of  my card with pink  card and then white embossed card. I die cut the heart design in white and pink card. I printed a sentiment and die cut it with a circle to fit inside the heart design. I added three small bottoms to resemble flowers and added some leaves which I cut with a punch. I printed a personalised sentiment and die cut it with a Sue Wilson banner die and mounted it onto a pink banner cut with a slightly bigger die. I added the satin ribbon to a panel of pink card and then attached it to the base of the card using foam pads so the panel would act as a stopper for the easel. I completed my card with Tonic Nuvo drops on the heart.
