The most flower lovin’ time of the year! Hello and happy mother’s day weekend if you’re a mother! Another flower card from me today and hopefully more to come! Lots of things I want to make up…seems I’m a better at collecting than creating! lol You?! lol
I love how fun the white flowers and border ended up against the olive and bluegreen. Then that dash of black…
I die cut an A2 size panel of olive color card-stock with the Memory Box Cheery Flower Collage die. Using some scrap pieces of white card-stock, die cut just the flower heads and glue then on top of the olive flowers. Add a little light Copic coloring in the petal veins. The leafy border from poppystamps Pierced Borders is die cut twice in white card-stock.
Cut a ½ inch polka dot border and tape it to the bottom of the olive panel, then glue one of the white borders on above it and up on top too. Any pattern paper that matches will do…of course mine is old…I’m not good at using it up while it’s new. ugh.
Die cut poppystamps Brush Hello die in black card-stock, stamp ‘just saying’ from poppystamps Sentiments of Hello stamp set on white card-stock (I used the MISTI), trim and glue both to the card front.
On the back side of the panel, add mounting foam tape or squares, you want enough to catch the pattern paper and adhere the panel to the card-base. Cut a square of pattern paper to place behind the circle ‘window’, then stick it to the card-base.
I added two Doodlebug Sprinkles to the flower centers.
It was fun…I even used pattern paper! YES!!! lol
Stamp club this afternoon…looking forward to seeing some other card-makers and enjoying a program on alcohol inks by one of the gals!
Take care and enjoy your weekend!

That is so sweet, neat color combo and Love the use of the pattern paper
I adore this card! Love everything about it and now I have more dies for my wish list! Great paper choice!
Another winning card! Had to fight the temptation to order all the dies you used on this card to copy you. Great card and love all the colors!

Love the card and love the colors you used. Just the kind of card I like.
Thanks for bringing your cards to stamp club. it’s always fun to seem them in real life!
Ultra-cute, Pam! “Tis the time for flower cards, for sure, but I’m a fan all year ’round. Love the green and it really pops the white and black. Just the right amount of designer paper to complement the design. My vast hoard is mostly ancient, too, and yet I’ve added to it recently. Can’t stop! I should have included some black in my Sprinkles order, darn it. You’re always doing this to me, but the inspiration is awesome!
very cute little card, pam! i like this round flower die…but was really taken with the border die…too cute! i see it is one of 3 borders….may just have to head over to cindy’s!
And another cutie! Such a great card Pam! Happy Mother’s Day to you! 🙂
outstanding Pam. I fell in love with it immediately 🙂
