Mother’s Day Flowers

Hello friends!  Sending a happy Mother’s Day to all of the celebrating moms this weekend!  It’s a beautiful day out today and tomorrow will be too, so I’m going out to plant some flowers that I’ve been wanting to do!   I hope that you’re having a nice weekend in whatever you’re doing.

I just wanted to share a card that I had made just for Mother’s Day:

Vicki-TE-MothersDay

I love how this turned out with all of those blooms bursting out from the antique pail!  I’m in the middle of going back over some classes that I’m doing, and this was one of them that I’ve switched up to fit this occasion.   The original card had carrots as a base and I didn’t have the flower dies they used, so I made my own version with what I had.

The antique pail, flowers, leaves, bow and foiled sentiment dies all came from Taylored Expressions.  The scallop rectangle frame came from My Favorite Things and some of the design papers I’ve used came from Scrapbook.com.

The background papers and large flower came from the same pattern papers as a couple of other flowers and dark green leaves.  I used some light pink ink to sponge some of the other flowers and center of bow.  The center of the scallop frame has some light green blending, so that it wasn’t so stark white behind the flowers.  I also sponged around the antique pail.

I arranged the flowers inside the pail and turned it over to attach with glue over the center of the scallop panel.  I popped up the front flower and added some colored gem dots to the center of the flowers and bow.  I attached some mirror cardstock to the back of the scallop frame panel to match the foiled sentiment.  The sentiment was attached over the pail at the bottom.

It took a little bit of time to cut and arrange all of it, but it was fun to fiddle with.  

Thanks for taking some time to stop by and I hope you’ve enjoyed this pail of flowers for Mother’s Day!  Have a fabulous weekend whatever you do! 🌼🏵️
