Hello! I got my April samples done! This month we have 2 cards that would be perfect for mom's on their special day or could also be pretty birthday cards, then, I have some of the other occasions covered for you like graduation, baby, and wedding! The graduation card could also be a birthday card with a small adjustment if a grad card is not needed. I can't wait to show you, but first, a reminder of what you get in the kit. You get 2 each of 5 designs + a bonus card made by me. All of this for $35 ($30 + $5 shipping). Kits will go out on the 1st but if you need to mail the cards for Mother's Day, I will help you by getting just these 4 to you by mailing them in a week. You will have to send me an extra $3 though, as I can't really get around that shipping! I wish the shipping was getting cheaper, instead of just going up, but can't fix it!) Okay, now on to this month's cards ...
First, is what is called an Upright Z Fold. I had pretty coordinating papers and I had a stamped image that was fairly large, so to showcase both, I found a fun fold! It is super easy to make.
This is how it looks when it is fully opened. The sentiment is for Mother's Day, but if you don't need that type of card, you can flip the panel over for a Happy Birthday sentiment I will have stamped for you on the reverse side.
It stands alone like an easel card...
This shows a side view...
Usually, you get one special fold card from me each month, but this month you get two! I have been thinking about a flower pot card for a while. I had not made one in about 8 years! I think the last one I made, I had to put it in a larger size envelope. This one is made to fit perfectly in an A2 size! I love how it came out ...
It is a pocket card and the flower panel just pulls out. Again, like the last card, a Happy Birthday will be stamped on the reverse side of white panel. (if you need it as an option).
I even decided to make the backside somewhat finished ...
The next card is for graduation, however if you don't add the hat or scroll, it could easily be for another occasion. On the reverse side of the panel, I think I have a birthday sentiment, something about older and wiser! But, you know what, it could also be a great guy card! I found that I have about 5 or 6 sets of owl stamps with varied sentiments, so if you need something different, I probably can help you out! Lpl!
Now, to the one of the ones that probably can't be changed from what it is now ... a baby card! It is very simple, but so adorable!
And the wedding card ... this one was fun because I got to combine two different stamp sets!
And last but not least, my bonus card! Since this month, a couple of the cards are made with mothers in mine, I wanted to do a card in pinks, with roses to honor my mother, Dorothy! She died at 97, 8 years ago, but I know if she was here, she would love this card!
I decided to leave the inside blank, because it would be perfect for so many occasions. You can just write in what you need before you give it!
I hope you like this month's cards. If you don't get my kits on a regular basis, make sure you let me know you want this month's kit. And if you need me to send the Mother's Day cards quicker, I must know that!
Happy Stamping!
