Happy happy HAAWWWMP DAY!! Whoo-hooo!!
I’ve got a really pretty card for you today (she says with blushing modesty…..) that is just perfect for Mother’s Day! It uses two great bundles in the 2020 Jan – Jun Mini Catalog…the Timeless Tulips and Birthday Jubilee bundles. They go together perfectly! Take a look-see:
The layout for this one is from this week’s CAS Colours & Sketches challenge.
And the soft color scheme is from the Sunday Stamps color challenge.
I started with a piece of Very Vanilla that I embossed in the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and matted on Petal Pink for the card front.
Then I cut two of the detailed die cut panels in the Jubilee Beauty Die Set from Very Vanilla and I adhered them to the card front with Liquid Glue. (It’s the middle die on the magnet in the picture below!) I adhered the panels closer to the bottom of the card front so that there was about an inch “gap” at the top of the card front.
I used Glue Dots to wrap and secure a piece of Petal Pink 1/4″ Metallic-Edge Ribbon around the panel – over the “seam” between the two panels.
For the bouquet, I stamped the large tulip in the Timeless Tulips stamp set on Very Vanilla – twice in Petal Pink, once in Terracotta Tile, once in stamped-off-once Terracotta Tile and once in stamped-off-once Cherry Cobbler. So….five flowers. I punched them all out with the Tulip Builder Punch (bundled with the stamp set for a 10% savings!).
I also stamped five stems in Pool Party on Very Vanilla and fussy cut them.
I laid out the flowers and stems and then got busy sticking them down! The bottom three flowers are adhered with Liquid Glue and then I popped the final two on with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the stems in place. You can see that I left the bottom parts of the stems sort of sticking up….
The sentiment, from the Timeless Tulips set, is stamped in Terracotta Tile on Very Vanilla. I cut it with a Rectangle Stitched Die – modifying it to make it a little smaller. I showed y’all how to do that on my video a couple of days ago….here!
I tied a big-ish loose bow with the Petal Pink 1/4″ Metallic-Edged Ribbon and adhered it with a Glue Dot.
Then I popped my sentiment over the top of the bow with double-stack Dimensionals. Finally, a few Champagne Rhinestone Jewels finished off the card front.
On the inside, I added a perfect sentiment from the Birthday Jubilee stamp set in Terracotta Tile on a Very Vanilla panel. I added a few tulips in Terracotta Tile and Petal Pink, with Pool Party stems and leaves. Then I added a few more of the Champagne Rhinestone Jewels. Cuz I love them so much! 🙂
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Petal Pink mat and into my Terracotta Tile card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.
My Very Vanilla Medium Envelope got more tulips on the front…
…and a single Petal Pink tulip on the back of the envelope!
Et Voila! I love this color palette – especially in Timeless Tulips!
The Jubilee Beauty Dies create gorgeous texture on your projects – especially pretty in tone-on-tone Vanilla! I hope you like!

So pretty! Love the colors that you used, perfect for those tulips! And Ginny agrees 100%…those squirrels are evil and they must be chased at every opportunity!! 🙂
Yep – they get pretty bold pretty fast!! Thanks, Amy! 🙂
You continue to amaze me1 Another beautiful card. And, you keep costing me money. I didn’t think I wanted that Jubilee bundle, but now I have to re-think that decision! I am sure Finn is on the lookout every day for these villains, bless his doggie heart.
He is, indeed, ever vigilant! Those rapscallions will never penetrate his defenses!! Thanks so much, Julie! 🙂
Good Morning Mary,
I saw your tutorial on Splitcoaststampers this morning. Nicely done !
Also, I remember the box from your Facebook Live presentation at Xmas 🙂 !!
Hugs,
Robbie
Thanks, Robbie – figured it would look familiar. That FB was kind of a dry run to be sure I could make the box straight thru for the SCS video tutorial! 🙂
Your tulip card is beautiful. The colors look amazing together.
Thanks very much, Stella! 🙂
Gorgeous! CASEing!!
Thanks much, Karen! 🙂
Hi Mary…no reason at all to blush and be modest…..that is a beautiful card…..!! You always make me want stuff I don’t have……guess that means you’re doing your job well…..ha!
We don’t see many squirrels…..but just let a CAT come into our yard and Buffy goes bonkers….the nerve!!
Thanks so much, Faith – I appreciate the kind words!! Cats are ALMOST as dangerous as squirrels – it’s a known fact in dog-land! 🙂
I LOVE that tone-on-tone die cut background! I’m with Julie–I might have to rethink that one now! Drat you! Beatuiful card.
I got the notice from Splitcoaest Stampers this morning and immediately went to see it, even though I had pinned your box earlier! Yay for you!
Glad you have FinnMan to keep your perimeter safe!
Yes – he’s 24/7. Well….maybe 12/7! He DOES sleep pretty hard at night so there’d be a window of opportunity for an insomniac squirrel… 😉 Thanks very much, Susan -I sure appreicate your support and kind words. Also…sorry? 😉
So pretty, Mary – I’ve been on the fence about these tulips, but your elegant card is changing my mind, lol. Such a sweet Mother’s Day card! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
They’re awfully pretty – and who doesn’t love a punch!! Thanks, Heather – appreciate you stopping by! 🙂
You’re right. They’re very pretty! I love how you decorated the inside of your card with them as well. Thanks so much for playing along with us at the CC&S challenge blog.
Thanks, Julie – appreciate you stopping by! 🙂
