Mother's Day card in beautiful blues...

 

This is a top-fold card with an uneven front and back. I love making this style of card where the front is shorter than the back. You can make it without specific dimensions. Just cut as much off the front as you like. I think I cut about an inch off, then I used a border punch to add scallops to the edge.

I added some pretty DSP to the shorter front flap and then added a thin, blue strip of cardstock to cover the edge of the DSP and give a more finished look.

The flowers and leaves were die-cut, and then some ink was blended on with a finger dauber. I added a gold gem to the center of each one.

The sentiment was stamped, die-cut and popped up with foam tape.

On the inside of the card, I added some blue cardstock at the bottom and rounded the corners. I made sure the blue cardstock was wide enough to cover the area that was exposed by the shorter card front.

Finally, I stamped a sentiment and called the card "done."

This is such an easy way to add interest to your cards. I hope you'll give it a try.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
