Tulips Mother's Day

Hi Lovelies...

I'm running a bit late with this card, as it's Mother's Day here in the UK on Sunday this week!  But here it is.  I lost my own Mum a long time ago now - back in 1989 - and I still miss her.  So this card is for her memory, and for all the Mum's out there who deserve it!

I've used a set of tulip dies - I think I bought them from Amazon, but I've had them a while.  I saw a lovely card by Chris Stokes recently using them, and it prompted me to dig this set out and colour them up!  

I used my Copics to colour them, with a touch of white gel pen.  I then created my card base, using a slatted rectangle die for the heads to sit against.  I adhered that with foam tape onto a square stitched diecut panel.  Then I added the tulips which I'd shaped with an embossing tool.  Lastly, I used a sentiment from a Clearly Besotted Miniature Type set, which I embossing in Rose Gold, and added some rose gold card behind the strip to make it stand out.
