Mother's Day 2016 Series - Card 3

Hi everyone, thank you for stopping by. I hope you are having a great day.

Welcome to day three of the Mother's Day 2016 series! When I think about Mother's Day, it still feels so far away, but I thought that with Easter too, and that creeped up on me before I knew it; and I don't really want that happening again, I didn't get nearly as many posts in that series as I wanted. Sorry guys.

To create today's card, I began by sponging Twisted Citron and Peacock Feathers Distress ink onto the panel and the tag.

I sponged the same colours onto a scrap of paper and die cut the butterflies. I covered the butterflies with glossy accents and set them aside to dry.

I used a sheer ribbon around the panel and up through the hole in the tag. Before tightening it, I added foam tape to the back of the tag to keep it in place.

I then put the panel onto a coordinating piece of cardstock cut slightly larger, then onto a lighter coloured piece cut to a standard A2 card base.

Once the butterflies were dry I adhered them with Ranger Multi Medium Matte to ensure they weren't going anywhere.

I hope you like today's card and are inspired to create something of your own.
