To My Mom
I’ve been inspired to try creating a patchwork card lately - and love how easily this one came together thanks to these vintage-looking papers from the Cape Town by Scenic Route line of designs. My mom is an avid quilter so I’m planning to give this card to her for Mother’s Day. A note about the design: this card is 5″ x 5.” Sharon Johnson is always inspiring me with her work, and I always think of her when I think of non-conventional card sizes and shapes. The patchwork pieces are 1.5″ x 1.5″ and are outlined using narrow black rick rack - so fun and vintage-y! The sentiment was created using Typeset Alphabet Lower and the To My Mom stamp from All Year Cheer from Stampin’ Up! and my Stamp-a-ma-jig. The edges of the card base and sentiment circle are sponged using Creamy Caramel, So Saffron and More Mustard classic ink to mimic the look of the designer paper.
