Mother's Day - Pitcher of Flowers card
Looking for a simple but sweet Mother's Day card to make? This is it. I just love how it came out! Here's how -
Supplies:
Cricut Machine or access to one such as in a scrapbooking store
Cartridge - Country Life
Plenty of card stock paper [coordinating cream, green blue, purple and pink]
Craft glue
Blank cards with envelopes (or make your own with cardstock)
Mini and regular size brads that coordinate with cardstock colors
Sticker foam
Directions:
Using your Cricut machine and the cartridge Country Life (don't you love this cartridge? I do!), cut out one 4" pitcher in green cardstock. Next, cut out one 4" pitchr-s in cream. Next, cut out one 4" layer1 pitcher in pink cardstock. Then cut out one 4" layer1 pitchr-s in blue. Lastly, cut out one 4" layer2 pitcher in purple cardstock. You should have pieces that look like this:
Glue your pitcher together and allow it to dry with something heavy on it so it doesn't curl. After it is dried, apply a small piece of sticker foam to the back of it and apply that to the front of the card. I used the foam because I love how the foam makes the pitcher pop from the card. Around the pitcher place several brads in different shapes. That's it!
