Hello friends! 

With Mother's Day quickly approaching, there's no better way to show your love and appreciation for your mom than with a handmade card. Honey Bee Stamps offers a wonderful selection of Spring dies and paper pads to help you create a heartfelt card for your mom this year.

For this particular card, I decided to leave off a sentiment on the front, creating a bit of mystery until the inside is read. It's a fun and unique way to make a card, and I may have to try it more often!

CARD RECIPE


To create your Mother's Day card, start by die-cutting the Lovely Layers: Nest Dies and Spring Birds Dies in your favorite colors of cardstock. Layer the different pieces to create a dimensional scene on your card. For some interest, I added white gel pen details and glossy accents on the bird's eye and beak. I also used Bee Shimmery Liquid on the eggs for sparkle. Then set the glued scene aside to work on the card base. 


Use the largest frame of Spring Vine Layering Frames to die-cut the card base using the partial die-cut method. Place the plate edge just before the end of the die, lining it up to the fold of the card base. This will create see-through corners on your card. Then die-cut another layer and glue it onto the card front to finish the scalloped edge at the fold.

Using a few more of the frames from the Spring Vine Layering Frames, die-cut the background layers for the card front. The pattern piece comes from the Simply Spring Paper Pad that I mounted using foam dots. For a coordinating envelope, I used the remainder of the pattern piece of paper to line the envelope, this time using the reverse side. (See the last image) Also not pictured here, I created a coordinating wax seal to complete the envelope.

Glue the rest of the die-cut elements onto the card front. For an added touch of interest, I used a thin ribbon and looped through the piercings of the center frame.

On the inside, I stamped the Mother's Day sentiment from This One's For The Girls using Bee Creative Intense Black Ink.

Finally, I added some embellishments stickers to the card's front corners to add sparkle and texture. I love how this card turned out and your mom will love hers too! I'm sure she will appreciate all the time and effort you put into creating a beautiful and heartfelt Mother's Day card just for her.

Thank you for taking the time to read about my card-making process. I hope you found it helpful and inspiring for your own projects. Happy Crafting!
