Happy Mother's Day (a wee bit late)

This is the other card I made for Mother's Day this year.  I'm late posting it (and mailing it) because my camera's battery died.  This one is similar to the previous card I made as I used the same sketch Paper Players 92 and SCS Color Challenge 374.  I used the same retiring stamp from Season of Friendship as shown in this card that is also featured on PP92.  The little green leaves are from the Bird Builder punch, I just trimmed off the stems.  For the little blue flowers I used an old SU punch and added green stick on gems.  I didn't have any pearls in the shade of green I needed so I used an alcohol marker to color the pearl for the bird's eye.

Recipe:
Stamps:  Season of Friendship, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Paper:  Crumb Cake, VV, Pacific Point, Certainly Celery, DP - SU
Ink:  Crumb Cake, Pacific Point
Accessories:  Scallop Border Punch, Bird Builder Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Word Window Punch, Three Flower Punch, Cuttlebug, Stick on Gems, Pearls, Spectrum Noir Marker, and Ribbon

Inspired Mother's Day

Mother's Day is coming this Sunday.  There are a couple mothers in my family to celebrate with so this is one design that I made. This one uses another stamp set that is on SU's retirement list.  The colors are from SCS Color Challenge 374 and the sketch is #92 that I found over at the Paper Players Challenge from last month.

It was a little tricky to color this image because it is a large solid stamp.  I used my Certainly Celery and Chocolate Chip SU markers to color the stems, leaves and tops of the flowers.  I don't have a marker in Pacific Point so I used a drop of the re-inker and a blending pen to color the petals.
