Coffee for Mum

I had to revisit this fab stamp set from Concord & 9th.... it's perfect for a 

Mother's Day card especially for my Mum :)

I love the look of the harsh lines of watercolour layers, I'm just not so good at 

being patient and waiting for the paint to dry so I can achieve it!! 

Well I tried my hardest this time and sat on my hands.... I'm pretty pleased with the result.

Love the hand-drawn lines from Lil Inkers to make a checked tablecloth and we seem to have a 

very clever Barista that has written 'For You' with the steamed milk!! 😃

More details for this card can be found on the Seven Hills Crafts blog HERE.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Mothers Day Duo

Hi everyone, this is gonna be super quick because it's late and I should be tucked up in bed!!!

I've been crafting this evening for Mothers Day having only just realised that I need to post my Mother-in-laws card tomorrow!! honestly.... head like a sieve!
So just to put more pressure on me I decided to use this weeks Retro Sketches for MIL's card and I'm just getting it in under the wire!!!

This card really uses up quite a few scraps, including the other half of that gingham tablecloth!, and came together quite quickly.... I love the two teacups for a Mothers Day card, we usually visit the local garden centre for a browse and a drink in the restaurant when Mum comes up to visit us so I thought it was perfect for her :0)

My Mums card is inspired by the Clean and Simple sketch this week and these fabulous digi sentiments from Pink Petticoat

Love that paper, its from 5&dime by October Afternoon..... reminds me so much of the linen you would find in our old airing cupboard :0)

Decided to make a top layer with a band for the buttons and even managed to sew relatively straight lines with my machine!!! 

Super CAS but I love it that way :0)

Right..... really need to go and get some sleep, it'll be dark glasses for me tomorrow... Lol 

See ya'round and thanks for looking :0)
