With one holiday just passed, it’s time to start thinking about our parents! The next two months bring Mother’s and Father’s Day, and we have a range of products from our April kit and extras to make creating for our parents a cinch! Let’s take a look at the cards that Wendy Antenucci created today!
Hello everyone, it’s Wendy here today with some cards to send out for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. It’s a little early, but when I saw the Mom and Dad Wood Veneer, I knew it was time to create!
Supplies | April 2019 Kit, Butterflies and Flowers Puffy Stickers, Typewriter Keys Puffy Alphabet Stickers, Mom Wood Veneer, Dad Wood Veneer, Springtime 6 x 6 Paper Stack, Wander Stamp
Both of my cards began with the wood veneers as they were so wonderful! I chose to keep the wood natural, but I did add a bow onto each piece.
The Mom card focused on a garden theme. I chose the floral papers from the Springtime 6 x 6 Paper Stack to enhance my garden and add a pop of color. The Butterflies and Flowers Puffy Stickers were the perfect addition to my garden as they allowed me to “plant” some flowers along the bottom edge of my card.
An old stick pin through the pink bow with a small puffy sticker flower added an old fashioned boutonniere feel to the card. The yellow celebrate sticker from the Butterflies and Flowers Puffy Stickers was a bright and bold touch to spice up the garden.
My Dad card was made with the thought of an office theme in mind. I used a leftover clothespin to hold my 3″ x 4″ “Instagrammed” tag from the April Kit to the page, mixing old and new pieces.
The Typewriter Keys Puffy Alphabet Stickers allowed me to customize my card, snuggling extra words around the wood veneer due to their cute size. One final ticket and “simple joys” sentiment from the Wander Stamp held on with a staple completed the manly/office theme that I was going for.
