For You

I had the idea for this card before Christmas but never got round to trying it out until now...




I've used one of the flower and leaves from the Mon Ami stamp set by CAS-ual Fridays and with the help of a stamping platform created a mandala look just by spinning the card 90 degrees and stamping four times.  

I've coloured the design with my Prisma pencils and then used a stitched die to add interest and height.




The most frustrating part was finding a sentiment, none of my stamps seem to work so in the end I opted for a simple die cut, cut from encased silver glitter cardstock... I will probably add a Mother's Day greeting on the inside closer to the occasion.

  7. Claire, you always amaze me! What a gorgeous "Mandala" you've created with those stamps and stamping platform. I love the CAS look and, of course, the beautiful colouring. It's hard to believe you had trouble with the sentiment--it's perfect for this card. Thanks so much for sharing your creation for our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
