Mothers deserve more than one day of celebration so let’s continue celebrating one more day. Today’s card features the brand new Basic Borders Dies and the catalog carry over Prized Peony and Forever Fern stamp sets. First, let’s talk about these new Basic Border Dies. I love dies with a stitch. This set comes with six different borders. You can create clouds, different border edges …
Welcoming Windows & Dragonfly Garden – Mother’s Day
Here’s another Mother’s Day card using the Welcoming Windows and Dragonfly Garden stamp. In yesterday’s post, I mistakenly mentioned that the Mother’s Day greeting was from the Color & Contour set, but in fact, it’s from the Welcoming Windows set. Making Mother’s Day cards brings back memories of my mom who passed away four years ago and my mother-in-law who passed away last year. I …
Color & Contour – A Wonderful Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is around the corner and so I used the Color & Contour stamp that has a Mother’s Day greeting. You can make so many different card variations using this set and the coordinating Scalloped Contours Dies. You can see another card here using Color & Contour. In that card, I used Memento black for the outline of the flower in the middle and …

Mother’s Day, Share What You Love
I had a nice weekend celebrating Mother’s Day with family. We took my mother-in-law out for lunch on Saturday and yesterday celebrated with my kids and grandchildren. It was also a bit emotional and bittersweet not having my mom around. It’s been a year since she passed away and I still miss her a lot. She was a great mom and full of joy despite …
Pleasant Poppies Stampin’ Up!
Here’s another Mother’s Day card using the Pleasant Poppies stamp set, which you can easily substitute the sentiment. Although this background stamp has been around and was on my wishlist, I purchased it only a couple of months ago. The sad thing is that it’s about to retire at the end of this month. You can use the Pleasant Poppies set as a background, part of …
Mother’s Love
Happy Mother’s Day! I know I’m a little late in the day with this but I didn’t want the day to go by without sending you wishes. I’ve been busy celebrating Mother’s Day with family, not just one day but 3 days – one with my mother in law, the other with my mom and today with my children and my adorable almost 3 month …
Peaceful Petals On Film – A Mother’s Day Card
I love the On Film Framelits – they’re so much fun. You can use them to focus on an image or simply put a favorite picture of yours. I colored the flowers from the Peaceful Petals Stamp Set with my blender pens. The top flower is one of my favorites from this set found in the Occasions catalog (good through June 1). And what can I say …
Happy Mother’s Day Accordion Card
I always like to make an extra special card for Mother’s Day so I chose to make this accordion card for my mom and mother-in-law. My dear mom has been through a lot physically – she’s been in the hospital / rehab more than at home the past couple of years. She is the strongest person I know and I admire her. Despite all her ailments …
