Using Retiring Products on a Mother's Day card

Hello and thank you for joining me for a card project today. I will be sharing another Mother's Day card sample with you where I use up some of the products that will be retiring from the Stampin' Up Annual Catalog at the end of May. The focal image from Pictogram Punches stamp set, the flower punch, the beautiful ribbon, lovely ink colors and the gorgeous Designer paper along with the Mossy Meadow card stock will all be gone soon so I thought I'd use them on this project. You can head to www.http://creativemeasures.stampinup.net to grab these items before they're gone. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think.

Here is a close up of the focal image and the Wink of Stella added just the right tough of sparkle but doesn't photograph very well.

Stamp sentiment with Versa Mark ink on Tangelo Twist card stock, then heat emboss with White embossing powder and punch using the Word Window punch. Adhere the focal panel onto the Mossy Meadow panel and pop up on dimensionals and adhere to the front of the card.

5. Add the punched sentiment under the stamped image.

Forever Love layout share

Hello and welcome to the post for today. I'm not sure I actually created a layout I wanted for this photo since it is so precious to me, but I think it came out pretty good. The background layer is Crate Paper Hello Love. The photo was matted on the Basic Grey B side woodgrain paper, then the left side of the photo was matted the Basic Grey Maybe paper. The right side was matted with the Basic Grey Prom Date paper. The final layer on the photo is the Gold Arrow paper from the My Story paper by My Mind's Eye. A branding strip was put at the bottom of the photo layer and some of the word phrases were cut from the Hello Love paper by Crate Paper and decorative brads used on the tags are from the My Story sheet by My Mind's Eye. I stamped Hello Baby (SU) using Memento Tuxedo black ink and die cut a banner (SU) and adhered it to the tag. The year is from the Seasonal Snapshot 2015 Project Life accessory pack (SU). Take a look at the layout and let me know what you t...
