It's another Friday and another challenge for Paper Cutz. This week Mary asked us to make a Mother's Day card. I have two aunts that I wanted to honor for Mother's Day. Both of them each had a son and sadly each son has passed away so I always like to make sure that I let them know how much they mean to me and how important they are in my life. For my first card I used the Cricut Heritage cartridge to cut my silhouette and my sentiment from dark brown cardstock. My patterned papers are K&Company.
For the second card I used the Cricut Storybook cartridge to cut the frames and the letters from black cardstock. I placed them onto white cardstock that I embossed with the Cuttlebug Floral Fantasy embossing folder. The red patterened paper is a scrap from my bin. I added a dark gray grosgrain ribbon and a flower that I made using the Cricut Bloom cartridge. I was fortunate to be able to spend my day yesterday with my aunts and take them out to lunch. They live quite a distance away so it was nice to meet up at a halfway point and have time to visit with them. We attended a scrapbooking expo, saw lots of wonderful stuff and had a great time. I hope that everyone has a Happy Mother's Day.
