Meet today’s card.
Just having some fun here with the new Frame 5 die (as well as the new Precious Mom stamp set and Cute Cluster die). Yes. I totally went wild with the new stuff. 😉
I cut a couple of the flower clusters from white cardstock. Figured out where I wanted to put them. Sponged ink onto the card in circles and then plopped the flowers on top. I added a little gold thread and then set the frame (cut twice… from white and black cardstock…so I had an inside and outside) on top. I stamped the word right into the middle.
And then … just for fun… I added some brads and enamel dots. Those little touches just kinda make things a little more fun, I think, when it comes to cards. You agree?
Alright! That’s what I have for you today. Thanks for stopping by, guys! Always a treat when you do. See you again soon!
A bit of this. A bit of that. 
So pretty! Love how you wateecolored hehind the flowers! Perfect Mom card.
