Hello Digi Divas! I am so excited to introduce you to my NEW stamp set "PANSIES FOR MOM" #3275J, a great set of digital images with matching sentiments- just in time for Spring and Mother's Day! Please come along on today's crafting adventure!


First Card:

I enjoyed this set so much I made 2 cards to share with you. My mom always loved spring when the Pansies, Tulips, Irises and Jonquils would pop up in her garden. She loved flowers! Today I chose Pansies in her memory. I miss you, mom...


MATERIALS LIST - Card #1:

3M© Foam Tape C1, C3

1/4" Tear-ific tape

Nuvo© Glitter Drops - Blizzard

Silhouette-Cameo© or Cricut©


I sized my image to 6" x 7", in the upper corner I sized the sentiment 1- 1/4" and the embellishment to 3/4" and grouped to make the tag. Printed on the Hammermill© White Coverstock. twice. (It fits in an 8-1/2"x 5-1/2" envelope).


I Colored the Images with Copic© Markers and Fussy Cut. The second set I only colored the Pansies and fussy cut the main parts and adhered to the main image with 3M© Foam Tape to give relief.


I merged the image on Silhouette© and angled nearly 45*, then traced the outside. Delete Image, copied the outline, flipped and moved into place which made the card base.

Once in place apply Halo about 0.125". Delete inner cut line. Using Halo, cut your card base.


Using 3M© Foam Tape I adhered the main image to the card base. Make a Floral Bow and run the ends of the ribbon under the handle of the pitcher and tie. Cut the tag with your die and punch a hole, run cord through hole and under ribbon and tie. Apply some Nuvo© Glitter Drops in the center of the faced pansies and let dry. Done!
