Messages for Mom, from Kim...

With Easter behind us, it's time to think about honoring Mom on Mother's Day. It'll be here before we know it!

Kim created this card using the Messages for Mom stamp set, Razzleberry Lemonade designer paper, Crushed Curry card stock and ribbon, and Rich Razzleberry ink and card stock.

The circle fire rhinestone highlights the floral spray.

A ribbon flower Messages for Mom...

I had a request from one of my best customers for a flower made from ribbon. I borrowed this idea from the Occasions Mini, page 29.

There are such nice sayings in the Messages for Mom stamp set, along with MOM and a lovely spray of flowers I used on the envelope.

This card is Whisper White with Sending Love specialy paper, Soft Suede card stock and a knot of Real Red satin ribbon (so soft and beautiful!).

I started with 6 inches of Soft Suede polka-dotted ribbon, because it took me awhile to find the "right" thread with a paper piercer. This thread will gather the ribbon. Pull a thread from each end (you really only need about 4 inches of ribbon) and you'll get a flower when you join the ends. The Real Red corduroy brad and Eyelet Border Punch used near the bottom of the card add great texture.

Monochromatic Messages for Mom...

This Very Vanilla card features the Messages for Mom stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog and Soft Suede card stock.

The patterned Soft Suede designer paper is from the Thoroughly Modern pack.

It also uses the new Pinking Hearts Border Punch, found in the mini.
