Happy Mother's Day by Bonnie Garby

Hi friends.  Bonnie here today from Make Time to Craft to share a pretty Mother's Day Card I made with beautiful dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.

I used the Concentric Circles Mesh Border die to create my background.  These border dies can do double duty and create beautiful backgrounds too!  I cut the die twice and then overlapped a bit matching the pattern.  Then I carefully cut down the center of the overlap which creates a perfect seam to join them together.  If you look really hard you can see the join at the bottom right below the center rose.  You would not have seen it though if I didn't tell you to look.  

My bow was made with grape and regal purple Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  It was created on my Bow-it-All Tool.

Cheery Lynn Dies used:

CASO20 Nested Doll Circles Shapes

B402 Concentric Circles Mesh Border

LPC-4 Circle Pierce & Cut Tool Lge Silver

B435 Tea Rose Small

B436 Tea Rose Medium

The beautiful tea roses were made with purple and white petal layers.  I used an old script background stamp to ink the white layers to give it a little texture and I also inked the edges of the white layers.  The layers were shaped with a foam mat and stylus tool and then assembled.  I love this pretty rose die!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Don't forget, there is still time to enter our current 'Mother's Day' themed challenge for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to Cheery Lynn Designs.
