Hi everyone!

Just wanted to share one of the cards I gave to my lovely mum today!

My mum has been very keen to have purple crocuses in her garden this year and when I saw The Greetery’s new crocus botanicuts set, I knew it would be perfect for a Mother’s Day card for her!

I spent a while trying a lot of different ink combos – using regular distress inks and distress oxides. In the end I just used one colour (Villainous Potion Oxide) and simply applied it more lightly for some petals. I absolutely loved making these flowers and ended up with a HUGE bunch for her card!

I adhered them onto a circle of patterned paper and then added an Avery Elle sentiment and a few sequins to complete my card.

I’m entering this into a new-to-me challenge, Cardz for Galz, where the theme is Spring Flowers for Mother’s Day.

Thanks for stopping by!
