Hello fellow crafters! Mother's Day is just around the corner, and I'm bursting with excitement to share a card that's both heartfelt and visually stunning. This project features a delicate spring blossom background and a vibrant floral bouquet, perfect for celebrating the amazing moms in our lives. I started with a piece of True White Speckletone cardstock, cut to an A2 size, and stenciled a soft spring blossom design using Distress Inks in Milled Lavender, Picked Raspberry, and Rustic Wilderness. The subtle texture of the Speckletone paper really enhanced the inked effect, creating a dreamy backdrop. Then, the magic happened with Cardstock Warehouse papers! I used their gorgeous Azalea, Kunzite, and Vista Stardream cardstock for the die-cut Lawn Fawn flower bouquet wrap, Lovely Lily of the Valley, and Terrific Tulips dies, adding a touch of shimmer and luxury. I also incorporated Shades of Green cardstock and Kraft Speckletone for some earthy contrast, ensuring the flowers truly popped!

Assembling the flowers was a joy, and the Stardream papers were so easy to work with, giving the bouquet a dimensional and elegant feel. I adhered the completed bouquet, including a sweet little bow, to the stenciled panel, then attached it to an A2 card base. For the sentiment, I die-cut "mom" using the Pretty Pink Posh dies from Kraft Speckletone and Kunzite Stardream, creating a lovely layered look. Popping up the sentiment with foam tape added the perfect finishing touch. I can't express enough how much I adore Cardstock Warehouse papers! The quality and variety are simply unmatched, and they elevate any card project. If you're looking to add a touch of sophistication and brilliance to your handmade cards, you absolutely need to try their Stardream line. Happy crafting, and happy Mother's Day!
