A traditional Mother's Day card

Good morning all

I'm sure I don't need to remind anyone that Mother's Day is fast approaching

If your mother is anything like mine - she likes a traditional card

flowers, pretty, pink - you get the picture.

So I've made this card as a little inspiration for a traditional pretty

Mothers Day card

the inside

I made the shape of the card by simply folding the square 7 inch card back at just above the half way mark and decorated with pretty papers, and die cuts.  I used collall 3d glue gel to glue it (after adding the papers) as I didn't want it to lie flat, but instead created a slightly dimensional fold

My main inspiration was the Die'sire word dies, I find them so useful, you can make them the central focus of any card really then just add embellishments.

What I did.....

Papers,- Little Angels and Sara's country garden from Sara's Signature collections from Crafter's Companion

Embossing folder - Floral swirls from Sara's signature Floral delights by Crafter's companion

           Flowers - Heartfelt Creations from Butterfly Medley collection (dies and stamps)

           Frame  - Spellbinders nestabilities Majesty

           leaves - Memory box fabulous phlox

flower centres - floral punch from woodware
Glues used, Collall 3d glue gel and all purpose glue

I hope I've given you some inspiration for Mother's Day cards - I'm sure most mums  love flowers for Mothers's Day
