For tonight’s showcase, we are featuring Mother’s Day which is celebrated in Australia on 9th May!
A Gorgeous Grape card base with some of the Hydrangea Hill DSP was the perfect start for my Mother’s Day card. I remember having Hydrangea’s in our garden growing up and these colours remind me of mum!
I stamped off the hydrangea image from the Beautiful Friendship stamp set (unfortunately it has sold out since I made this card) before stamping it onto Basic White card. Then I die cut the panel and used the stylus (from the Simply Scored) around the edges on the back while it was still in the die. This gives that beautiful embossed edge. Stamp the ‘you’ in the same ink at full strength. The butterflies are from the Floating & Fluttering Bundle and die cut in Purple Posy card. The Forever & Always Bundle has the dies to create the ‘love’ which is popped up on Black Dimensionals.
On the inside I added a 1″ strip of DSP down the side and some basic white card to write my message. I stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape and added some Purple Posy die cut flowers.
The Butterfly Gems are on the retirement list and at a reduced price, so be quick if you want them!

Aww, what a lovely card! The butterflies flittering around in the hydrangea blooms look beautiful. It’s great when you can make a card to match a memory.

Love your choice of DSP, stamp set and colour combination Kate – this card is full of my favourite things! I really like the simplicity of this fold and the way the strip of DSP down the side of the card decorates both the front and the inside – very clever!
