Holly is here today with a super fun take on a Mother’s Day card. All Moms love to receive potted flowers in the spring and they make the perfect gift for Mother’s Day. Holly created a pot filled with flowers that pull up to reveal the sentiment, or what would be considered the inside of the card. A fabulous project for so many occasions!

Isn’t this just the sweetest!

The base of the pot is made using fun papers from My Favorite Easter by Echo Park.

Holly used A2 Scalloped Border One by Spellbinders for the lovely scallop trim layer.

The flowers were created using our Spring Pansies Floral Cluster by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The greenery was cut using Floral Cluster and Sprigs Steel Dies by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

Once pulling the insert up, the inside sentiment is revealed – super fun!

The sentiment is from Typewritten Year Round Greetings by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The ‘for you’ is also from our Spring Pansies Floral Cluster by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

Holly accented her project with cute buttons from her stash and:

Baker’s Twine – Pink/White

1/4″ Silk – Fuchsia – 50% OFF!

Melissa Frances Pearls – Pink

What a great project for Mom and it would be perfect for so many other occasions like get-well, birthday, to cheer you up, etc. The list is endless.

You can check out this tutorial or this tutorial to see how this card comes together and functions.

Esther is sharing a gorgeous scripture card today. And although we are referring to this as a masculine card, it would truly appeal to any nature enthusiast or lover of all things earthy and rustic. From the weathered barnwood background to the open cut leaf, birds, branches and scripture, this is one of those cards that has appeal across the board.

A good rustic, earthy card is always in order!!!

The images and sentiment are from God Will Take Care of You by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

That gorgeous leaf was cut with Skeleton Leaves by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

That rustic background is embossed with the Lumber embossing folder by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

A variety of ink colors were used to create the multiple inked backgrounds.

Esther stamped with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink and colored with Arteza Real Brush Pens.

Just gorgeous!!! A perfect scripture card to uplift spirits regardless of gender.

Good Sunday morning and blessings to you all! We are re-sharing a scripture card from Judy that is super lovely, yet quick and easy. I always love to see scripture as the main focus/focal point of a card. Judy’s large butterfly accent and lovely designer paper background frame the scripture verse just beautifully, making this a win/win on all fronts!

Such a simply lovely way to convey the word of God via a hand made card.

The scripture verse is from Hope by Stamp Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The butterfly was cut using Brushstroke Butterflies by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

The lovely background paper is from Ink Drops Candy by Craft Consortium.

Judy accented with thin Metallic String and Kaisercraft Rhinestones.

Judy stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink – a crisp ink perfect for sentiments.

Here is a nice close look. So simply lovely. Perfect for a scripture card.

Thanks so much, Judy, for this very lovely inspiration.

Good Saturday to all! Julie is sharing a wonderful belly banded double Z fold scripture card with us today.

Good Friday morning. Easter is rapidly approaching and today we are re-sharing a card from Deb conveying the quintessential Easter message – that God sacrificed his son, Jesus, to death on a cross that we might be saved from sin and have eternal life. This is done up in a masculine and rugged style, a perfect comparison to the cross on which Jesus died. She added a cross of nails and crown of thorns to further embed the imagery and message. So beautifully done!

We are absolutely loving this card which so perfectly conveys the true meaning of Easter.

The sentiment and stamped images are from Salvation by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

That gorgeously rugged paper is from Wood Textures by Craft Consortium.

Deb stamped with Versafine Clair Inks in Acorn and Nocturne and used Spellbinders Standard Rectangle Dies.

Thank you so much, Deb, for this very special Easter card. Truly, a treasure!

Good morning to all! Deb is here today sharing a super darling project. It’s a small box in the shape of a birdhouse, complete with bird and branches, ready to accept some small candies for an Easter basket or a special treat in and of itself. We are totally smitten with this project and know you will be, too!

Is this sweet, or what!!!

The bird, branches and sentiment are all from God Will Take Care of You by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The sentiment tag was cut with Tag Collection by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

The designer paper used is from Beach Hut by Craft Consortium.

Deb used border dies to create the shingle effect on the roof – exact die unknown – find Border Dies here.

Spellbinders Standard Circles (large) were used to create the birdhouse opening.

Spellbinders Standard Squares (small) were used to cut the side panels.

Deb stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers.

A bit of jute string and a button from her stash were used as the perfect accents.

Here’s a closer view of the bird perched near her door.

And here is the upper portion of the birdhouse with the scripture tag.

I love the shade of blue used here, representative of the sky.

And here the roof is popped off so you can see how it was made.

This is a modified 2-4-6-8 box that makes a cute Spring/Easter gift (template here).  It would be cute and yummy filled with jellybeans or chocolate almonds, small enough to tuck into an Easter basket.  

Thanks so much for this fun and inspiring project, Deb!
