Life Is Sweet / Happy Mother's Day

Karolyn and Katie have some cards for us today! 

This first card by Karolyn is so cute!  I love how she used our double pierced circles dies to frame the cute watermelon.  The gingham paper and the "life is sweet" sentiment from our Fruit Stand stamp set goes so well together!

Supplies:

Fruit Stand Clear Stamps

Fruit Stand Dies

Double Pierced Square Dies

Double Pierced Circle Dies

Dotted Borders Dies

Midnight Hemp Twine

New Moon Dye Ink

Katie stamped the floral image from our Mother's Day stamp set repeatedly to create this stunning background.  I love how she softened it by layering vellum on top of it. The Mother's Day sentiment looks fantastic on a Wonky Stitches die cut.

I created a fun tag in honor of the event.  I used some of our products along with Therm O Web's deco foil, their foam adhesive sheets, deco foil pen and some of their adhesives.  To create this tag I stamped and die cut images from our Be A Unicorn Stamp Set.  I used the deco foil pen to color in the unicorn horn and then placed the gold foil (silver side down) on top of the area that I colored in.  I ran the stamped unicorn and foil sheet through my Big Shot to make sure that they were well adhered.  After peeling off the foil I had a beautiful gold horn!  I die cut the small stars out of the Therm o Web deco foil foam adhesive sheets and then peeled back one side of the backing of the sheet.  Once again I placed the gold foil (silver side down) on top of the sticky side of the star die cuts and ran these through by Big Shot machine.  After peeling back the foil I had these gorgeous gold stars that were ready to be stuck to the tag base.  The shine of the stars and the horn are just gorgeous and how cute is this cloud jumping unicorn?!  I love it!
