I decided to create a floral Mother’s Day card for the challenge this week.  It was last month here in the UK but I know elsewhere in the world it is in May so I’m not entirely behind with this card!!!  I used the pretty Fronds stamp set from Stampendous to create a simple bunch of flowers – they could have been picked fresh out of any English country garden!!  I stamped them in a light ink then used Zig Clean Colour Markers to colour loosely over the image.  To give it a more water coloured appearance I went over the ink with a water brush.  I die cut the panel with the Scalloped Dotted Border die from Avery Elle and finished with some twine and a few sequins.

I kept it clean and simple with my card this week using the fab Stamp Your Own Cactus set from Hero Arts.  I also used another of my favourite Hero Arts products, the Ombre ink pads.  I definitely don’t use these enough!!

I’m just catching up with life after an amazing trip to California and the CHA Mega show.  What an amazing experience that I will never forget.  I met so many awesome peeps and saw so much crafty fabulousness!!  It was so much fun.

Well I’m well and truly still in a FOILING FRENZY here at the moment.  I am literally having too much fun!  I used one of the polka dot pattern panels (created in Word) and printed it using a laser printer onto vellum.  I foiled this in silver along with some bits from the Heidi Swapp Christmas Ephemera kit (I used Hot Pink foil for the deer – so gorgeous).  To add more sparkle I layered the sentiment panel onto some glitter cardstock and finished off with a few pink adhesive sequins.
