Mother's Day Card

I created this card for the Basic Grey Challenge 28 - Follow The Sketch. I used Basic Grey's Sultry 6x6 paper pad. The stamp is from My Favorite Things, colored with copics and Bic markers. I used a craft knife to trim away the inside of the stamped image, then layered it with dimensionals. I created the sentiment on my computer and punched it out with a Stampin Up punch. Thanks for looking.

Cardstock: Bazzill
Paper: BasicGrey - Sultry 6x6 paper pad
Stamp: My Favorite Things - Mother's Day
Tools: Stampin Up punch, Nestibilities dies, Martha Stewart border punch
