Welcome to the April PALS BLOG HOP! This month, we're featuring Wonderful Wedding and Mother's Day projects for your inspiration! Peruse the tips and details for my Mother's Day project–then keep on hopping to ten more stops! The complete Stampin' Pretty Pals Hop Line-Up! is below!
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
Paisley Petals Designer Series Paper defines the style and colors of this card. It's available as a part of the Stampin' Up! Spring Is Blossoming Promotion.
- The button flower (courtesy of the Boho Blossom Punch) multi-tasks as an "O" in "MOM."
- Mini Glue Dots keep the button in place.
- Tying a pretty knot used to be a challenge for me until I learned to hold the right side steady and pull with the left. Check out my Tying a Pretty Knot Video for a visual explanation.

As catchy as a cold and just as annoying. It won’t kill you but you sure don’t want it in your head.
Beautiful card! I wouldn’t have thought of green and blue colors for “Mom”, but it’s stunning!
I absolutely LOVE this card! Color combo… DSP and everything!
If ever I was going to case a card, this one is it!!! I now love this side of the DSP!!! Absolute perfection! Hugs,
Love this card and the color combos! I have also posted your Tying a Pretty Knot video on my blog. Thanks for all your helpful tips and ideas!

I’ve tucked this card away in my “favorites” file. The colors are beautiful and I love your use of the alphabet.
This new paper is absolutely gorgeous! I have mine and used it for a workshop I had last night. The girls loved it! I hope to sell lots of it in April. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas. I love your blog and visit it often! This card is again beautiful, as yours always are.
Great card. Love the color combo. It really pops. TFS!
A very stunning card!! Love the color combo and the button “O”, what a great idea!!
Beautiful card Mary. I love this paper, love the layout, love how you used the flower for the “o” in mom…love everythig about it! Thanks for sharing!
Terrific job on MOM. I have this MDS download and have not used it….now I am inspired. Love, love your blog. My first and last stop each day. Blessings, Diane
Mary I just LOVE this card. And since my recent order from you… I qualified for that set of DSP… and have not used yet. I am so excited. Also… love your DSP color chart! I have cut up old catalogs to help me organize… but this is much faster and I SAVE my catalog from despair. 🙂 This card is really a knock out!!!
