Hi, it is Christine and today in the UK it is Mother’s Day! It is on a different day to the US but I’m trying to convince my family I can celebrate twice! For my Mum, I’ve chosen to make a Spring card.
Using my trusty Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products this did not take too long at all. The background was attached to the card base using Crafty Foam Tape White, the ribbon adheres perfectly with Crafty Power Tape (‘power’ is definitely the key word here – it sticks so many things!) and my flower is positioned with 3D Foam Squares White Small.
My favourite – the finishing touch, Creative Photo Corners Ivory , these look lovely when inked slightly and frame the card beautifully.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the UK Mums today – celebrate by crafting!
Supplies used:
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: Crafty Power Tape, 3D Foam Squares White Small, Creative Photo Corners Ivory, Crafty Foam Tape White.
Spellbinders: Sprigs, Blooms Four
Graphic 45 – Secret Garden
Ribbon, twine, metal clip
