Stamped and Coloured Happy Mothers Day Card

Hi Everyone, here's my last Mothers Day card for this year, although I used this floral stamp on an earlier card I hadn't used the Happy Mothers Day sentiment stamp that comes with it. With such a bright colourful background the simple black on white greeting was all I needed.

Start with an A6 white blank card, cut a piece of green card 10.3 x 14.55cm and attach this to the card front. Cut a piece of white card 9.9 x 14.15cm and stamp the floral stamp all around the card, changing the direction of the stamp and stamping off the edge of the card. Colour the stamped images with your favourite markers or crayons. I used Copic markers for this, the colours are listed below.

Attach the stamped and coloured panel to the card front with double sided tape. Cut a piece of white card 2.5 x 10cm, stamp the Mothers Day greeting in black ink and once it is dry fix it across the centre of the card using adhesive foam pads.

Not much in the way of instructions but obviously the colouring takes a little time to complete. I love the way this card has turned out, the bright, fresh colours are perfect for spring time and Mothers Day. I really hope you like it too and would love to hear your thoughts if you have time to leave a comment.

Thanks for reading
