Hero Arts Silhouette Flower in Yellow

Supplies:  Stamp by Hero Arts "Silhouette Flower" and Northwoods "Happy Mother's Day", Cardstock is Neenah White and SU Daffodil Delight, Ink is VersaMark with SU White embossing powder, Ribbon by American Crafts Premium, Button is Basicgrey, embroidery floss, glue dot, adhesive, Hero Arts clear Gems, Liquid Pearls in White Opal

Here is a quick card I made tonight.  I went to Archiver's yesterday and bought this new Hero Arts stamp.  I thought it would look cute in yellow, since the flowers were daisy-like.  There is no coloring - so this card is easy.  Just stamp the image in versamark and white embossing powder.  I put liquid pearls in the center of each flower to add a little dimension.  I need to think of other uses for this stamp.  I haven't had time to search other blogs to see how other people have used this.  I may try watercolor next time.  I hope everyone out there enjoys the last two days of March!

Fresh Mother's Day Card

Here is the Mother's Day card we will be making at our Girl's Night Out tonight! It is very "fresh", so it is no coincidence that the name of this stamp set is Fresh (not the sentiment).
I love this stamp set! I love doodle-inspired designs. Sorta reminds me of Picasso. Don't ya think? Okay...maybe not. :S
Can't wait to give this card to mom!

Ribbon: Michael's - Offray
Bling: Flower by Bazzill (hot pink) and glitter dome by Mark Richard's

Spring Fling Make & Take Card #2 - Echoes of Kindness

Front of Card
Inside of Card
This is Card #2 that we will be making at our Make and Take! I hope you like it, and are able to attend our class next Thursday night!!! You will get to make 2 of these, in addition to 2 of the cards I posted yesterday, a card Peggy is designing, and 2 crafts. WOW!!!
*If you don't want your card to say "Happy Mother's Day", we can certainly use a different stamp with a different saying at the class.
Supplies (All Stampin Up except the Bigz Die and Nesties)
Sizzix Bigz XL Die - Card, Scallop & Big Shot Machine
Nestabilities Scalloped Circle (for the inside of the card)
Ink: Black Stazon, SU Watercolor Pencils, Perfect Plum Stampin Pad, Versamark
Cardstock: Pale Plum, Perfect Plum, Perfect Plum DSP, Watercolor Paper, Very Vanilla Paper
Stamp Sets: Echoes of Kindness (Hostess Set), All Year Cheer II (sentiment), Great Friend (the leaves that are versamarked in the circle)
Other: Blender Pen (to watercolor the flower), Vanilla Tafetta Ribbon, Adhesive
Note:
When Peggy and I met to discuss this card, we were originally going to use the long stem of flowers in the Echoes of Kindness stamp set. However, since the Bigz Die made the card a little smaller than an A2...I decided to use the shorter stem of flowers. Also...I am VERY NEW to watercoloring. Peggy will be at our Make & Take to show you how to watercolor - and I am sure I can learn a lot, too.
