Happy Mother's Day....Week!

Now, why shouldn't it be a celebration all week!?  Here at SweetSassyDiva we are celebrating it longer than just a day!

We were asked to make something for Mother's Day this week at SweetSassyDiva so, I thought I would make a simple card for my sisters, both who are great mom's.
I laid out all of my supplies and cut the papers according to the mat on my gypsy...and began to cut.
I used Christmas Cards cartridge to cut out the card, and then rounded the corners with my punch, the center was plantain schoolbook, and then Happy Mother's Day come from the calligraphy cartridge.
I inked the edges of the centerpiece, glued it to the face of the card, added my ribbon and button...also the gems on the one and the Happy Mother's Day to complete the simple cards. I really liked how they turned out. Now just to mail them...that is an even bigger accomplishment for me.

  1. Nice cards. Don't you just love your Gypsy? I don't think I could use my Cricut without it now. I love that I'm able to sit with the family watching tv or whatever and design, then just run in my scraproom to cut.
