Super Mom!

We all know that one special woman in our life...Super Mom!

Hi Everyone and welcome back!

Well as you all know, Mother's Day is coming upon us.  This is the best time to start up your projects.   Here is a little something that I prepared for my own sister.  She always was doing to much for her children.  I always thought of her as a Super Mom!  That mother who is works hard, comes home to care for husband and kids.  This image is from A & M Memories called Cleaning Claire.

First you will have to print out your image to fit an A2 on the farthest right side.  I have set this up to print out at 50% opacity so that it will print out in the lightest shade possible.  

Color in your image and trim down your card to 4 1/8" x 5 3/8".  This will allow a 1/16" showing of your aqua base under our image.  You are now ready to begin.

Step 1: Adhere your image to the backer

You line the outer portion of your card with Score Tape.  Lift the tape backing up from opposite corners of the card.  alight your card so that it shows 1/8" on all sides before pressing down on the exposed corners.  Now that it is set, you can simply pull the tape backings on all sides and press down.

Step 2: Stamp your Sentiment

Using your stamping platform you will stamp out the sentiment "SUPER" in the upper left hand corner.  

Alphabet Stamps used:  Claire's ABCs from Lawnfawn.

Step 3:  Die Cut "MOM"

Using the Die-namics LLD Stitched Alphabet dies, cut out the letters "MOM".  You will then adhere these about 1/2" from the left side and aligned from the bottom of the bucket in your image.  I usually eyeball my measurements using points on my image so that it fits in proportion. 

Step 4: Finish off your card

You are now ready to finish off you card.  Mount your image and backing to your A2 card base.  You will use 1/2" double sided tape.  Once mounted, you can add a little accent on each corner with Nuvo Crystal Drops.  Allow this to dry for 25 hours prior to standing or using your card.  

Viola!!! You are now done.

This is a very easy and simple card.  Known as a CAS card (Clean And Simple).  It makes it easy to make in multiples and et has wonderful details.
