Stamp, Ink & Paper Guest Designer!

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday!

I am so excited to share that I will be joining the Stamp, Ink & Paper Challenge Team for the month of May! Justin owns the local stamp store here on Long Island, and I’ve had so much fun getting to know him and shopping!  He is QUITE the enabler, let me tell you!

This week’s Challenge #97, is all about Mother’s Day!  Fun! I’ve used the SUPER fun new Flower Shaker Die-namics, More Essential Sentiments and Well-Connected Alphabet from MFT for my card!  I am obsessed with this Flower Shaker!

This was SUPER fun to create!  I started with a panel of Smooth White Card Stock cut with Blueprints 13 Die-namics, and I added a mat of Smooth White Card Stock cut using Blueprints 20 Die-namics.  I embossed the smaller panel using the Cloudy Day Stencil and Embossing Pad Duo, but it’s hard to capture the texture via photograph.

I cut the flower from Ripe Raspberry Prestige Card Stock (this is my favorite color of MFT Card Stock, ever!), and a piece of patterned paper from the Graphic Grid Paper Pack using the Flower Shaker Die-namics. The center of the the flower was cut from Smooth White Card Stock, and I stamped “mom” using the Well-Connected Alphabet using Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink. I added a Circle Shaker Pouch, full of sequins, to the center, and added the “mom” panel to the back.  The stem and leaves were cut from Green Room Prestige Card Stock using the Flower Shaker Die-namics, and the grass was cut from Green Room Prestige Card Stock using the Grassy Fields Die-namics.  I added a sentiment panel, cut from Smooth White Card Stock using the Stitched Sentiment Strips Die-namics, and stamped “LET’S CELEBRATE YOU” from More Essential Sentiments using Black Licorice Premium Dye Ink.
