Beyond the Horizon with Quick Quotes

Happy Saturday to you!

I'm up over on the Quick Quotes blog today.  I created a card to share that I've used the pattern paper sentiment as part of my overall design. Do you ever do this?


In honor of Mother's Day I really wanted to create a card that would be suitable for Mom on her special day or serve another purpose as well. 


I started with the Baggage Claim 100 paper, then cut the "Beyond the Horizon" sentiment from it. I added a few hearts and doily behind it, then finished with the banner backing for the "Love You" sticker in the Sheer Joy collection.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day!

Today we take time to pay tribute to that special Mom in our life!  We honor you and thank you for being so very special to us!  For those of us who celebrate the memories of our loved ones, my heartfelt wishes to you that the memories are warm and bring you comfort.

Today I have some Quick Quotes card inspiration for you.

I've mixed our One Fine Day, Dreamscape and Miss Morgan collections.
I started by using the Labels Fourteen to cut my vellum sentiment and also the backing for it.  I created the shadow layer by tracing the outer part of the die with pencil, then cut it out with my scissors for the yellow layer.

The scallop border here is a strip of plain vellum that I die cut and inked with Purple Passion and Tahiti PowderPuff Chalk Inks.  I inked on the back side and allowed to dry.  I love how it softly coordinates, yet still has a little variation of tone.

To finish it off, I created a paper bow and added the bird.
