Happy Mother's Day (and a Sheetload of cards).


Congratulations to this week's Featured Stamper, Teresa (aztk). I chose this card as my inspiration:




I focused on Teresa's:
-colours (blues and yellows)
-butterfly
-gingham
-flowers
-dots

I changed:
-layout
-added pink and green
-added a sentiment

Today I'm also collaborating with Alicia (Call Me Crafty Al) and I was inspired to try her "Sheetload of Cards" idea! This is a monthly "recipe" for making 12 cards with minimal supplies.

 I am in the midst of making a large number of Mother's Day and Thinking of You cards for residents of a nursing home, and thought this would be a great way to make multiples!

Rather than using 12x12 patterned paper, I made my own with a Memory MISTI (the big mama-MISTI!) and some Concord & 9th turnabout stamps.

Alicia also has a video, inspired by my faux inlaid die cut technique, so be sure to check it out!

Here's my video:
