Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day everyone!!

Here is a card from my Bingo Class.  I hope your day is wonderful (whether you're a mom or not!!).

This pink Mother's Day Card uses Stampin' Up!'s Timeless Tulips Bundle (includes the Tulip Builder Punch).  The instructions are on the blog - click the picture to go there!)  #StampTherapist #StampinUp

This pink Mother's Day Card uses Stampin' Up!'s Timeless Tulips Bundle (includes the Tulip Builder Punch).  The instructions are on the blog - click the picture to go there!)  #StampTherapist #StampinUp



  1. Fold the 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 Petal Pink card base in half.  Fold the front back.  Stamp and sign the back. 
  2. If your stamping surface is not very firm and smooth, place a foam mat or catalog under your cardstock for stamping with Photopolymer stamps.  I recommend the Stamparatus Deluxe Foam Mat. 
  3. We are using the Timeless Tulips Bundle (p 43 - Timeless Tulips Set & Tulip Builder Punch).
  4. On the smaller 3 x 4 Whisper White cardstock, stamp the three tulips first in Petal Pink ink. Add the three stems in Pear Pizzazz ink (I used the straight one for the two outside tulips and the curved one for the center). 
  5. There are two pieces of 3 3/4 x 5 Whisper White cardstock.  One is for the inside.  On that one, stamp the greeting in Pear Pizzazz ink.  Stamp the flower next in Petal Pink ink, then add the straight stem and two leaves in Pear Pizzazz ink.
  6. **ATTACH THIS ONE INSIDE BEFORE ASSEMBLING THE FRONT.
  7. From your 6 x 6 Subtles Designer Paper: **First cut off 2 1/2" from your Petal Pink designer paper for your envelope.  Now cut the leftover piece to 3 1/2 x 4 3/4.  
  8. Attach the designer paper to the other 3 3/4 x 5 white piece.  Attach the front stamped piece to that. 
  9. After the inside piece has been attached, add adhesive to the LEFT BACK of the front piece ONLY and attach directly over the back white piece so it's fully covered. 
  10. Tie your White Flax Ribbon in a bow and attach with a Mini Glue Dot.  Use the Take Your Pick Tool to add one of each size Rhinestone.
  11. Add adhesive to the flap of your Whisper White Envelope and attach the 2 1/2 strip of designer paper.  Hand cut off the excess around the envelope.
For Photopolymer stamps (the totally clear ones), use a FOAM MAT on plastic/flexible tables.  DO NOT press hard into the ink pads*.  Just tap gently on the ink pad moving the stamp around to different spots several times.  *EXCEPTION: do press hard on our BLACK and Staz On ink pads.

Here are the supplies used for this card:



Have a great day!!
