Hi Everyone,

It’s Tuesday and if you haven’t mailed your Mother’s Day cards yet, you better take ten minutes NOW and get them made and mailed. I probably speak for most mothers that they would rather get a handmade card in the mail, rather than a gift. Here is a card that you can make and send off today.

It shows you how to make a large flower out of our NEW Sparkle Clear Little Letters ”O” set! I love to show people how to use a stamp in a non-conventional way so you can get extra benefits besides it’s intended use.

Supplies:

• Solid Borders
• Sparkle Clear Little Letter “O”
• Pink, Lemon, Green Apple Notecards
  
• Happy Mother’s Day
• Primary Elements Queue, Memories Black
• Summer Gemstones

Instructions: Cut green strip. Stamp border. Adhere to white note card. Stamp flower from “O” for center. Stamp an “O” for each petal. Cut out. Stamp center again on yellow. Cut out and mount in center. Mount flower on strip. Stamp words in black. Add gems.

I’ve also included a bonus card made from color card stock scraps…I NEVER throw anything away…just ask my husband!! Thirty-six years of accumulation! Happy Mother’s Day!

Supplies:

• Fancy Shoes
• Happy Mother’s Day
• Memories Black
• White Notecards, scraps of various notecards
  
• Flower Sequins
• Summer Gemstones
• Sparkle Gems Blossom
• Sparkle Gems Small Blossom
• Little Turns and Brads

Stamp all three shoes in many different colors of card stock. Cut out. Stamp Mother’s Day in black. Arrange shoes and mount with foam tape. Add gems.

More tomorrow,
