Featured Product- Mother's Day themed stamp sets

Hello and welcome to our CTMH Featured Products Blog Hop. This week our featured product is Mother's Day stamp sets. I am linking this card up with CASology's cue card of the week Mom,or Mum as we spell it here in New Zealand!



If you have just joined us you can start here and continue on, as this is a circular hop or if you get lost along the way you can start at the beginning with Catherine as she has the complete list. If you came here from Catherine's Blog you are in the right place. Now on to my project:

I had to make a Mother's Day card, and I wanted something feminine and dainty. I began by inking up one of my embossing folders with Sorbet ink and running it through my Cuttlbug to create a textured background.

The Charlotte paper packet is so elegant, and so I used a strip of that down the side of my card. I added this two toned stamped flower from Blossoming Expressions and fussy cut it to my card. Some gold sequins were also added to the page.



My sentiment is from the Cricut Artfully Sent collection stamp set, which has an amazing set of sentiments. I thought this sentiment went well with the classy look of this card. I stamped it in black ink, and added some gold ribbon and sequins.



Thank you for checking out my project. If you would like to purchase our featured product of the week or any additional supplies you can buy them here. If you enjoyed my project please comment below as we love feedback! Next on our blog hop is Kim. Make sure to check out her amazing work featuring this same product.

See you on Wednesday 20th April as we will be featuring the Cricut Artistry cartridge! Have a great day!

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #156

Whenever I make a card, I always like to have a sketch to inspire me. This week's sketch at Atlantic Hearts is one I can see myself using again and again, as all of the design team have come up with fantastic ideas with this sketch!


I used the Brushstrokes stamp set and some scraps from the Charlotte Paper Packet to create this card. This white and gold riboon from the Regatta WYW was the perfect finishing touch.



I matched the gold bling to the gold in the ribbon, and added a sentiment and splotchy heart in black. This card could be used for a number of occasions- I like having some generic cards in my stash to quickly grab if needed.

Be sure to link up your own creations using this week's sketch!
