Mothers Day is coming!

Hi everyone! 😀
Mothers day is coming very soon, not long till 11th march, i thought i would get some designs done, i hope you like this one, the items you will need are

1 sheet a4 cardstock in blue, this measures 8 1/4 x 5 1/2 fold in half and burnish
1 sheet patterned paper, of your choice i used a pale coral colour that had a paisley pattern on it, this measured 8 1/8 x 5 1/4
 some flourish and leaf dies
Stampin Up wild wasabi (pale green) cardstock to which i adhered some double sided stick sheet to it and then using the flourish and leaf dies i cut 2 flourishes and 4 leaves with the sticky adhesive sheet on the back and then 
2 flourishes and 4 leaves with nothing on the back , still in the wild wasabi green cardstock
and put them to one side
I got two doilies which i adhered together with double sided tape, just to make it stronger and i cut one quarter our of it
i folded the two cut ends backwards so they met behind the doily and it mad a little pouch, i put double sided tape onto the outside of the two cut edges so that when you folded it back you could adhere the back to the cardstock to make a little pocket, this will be the `wrapping` for our bouquet of flowers 🌸
i thin adhered the flourishes and leaves around the top of the doilies onto the patterned paper. Using the StampinUp Calypso Coral cardstock i stamped in calypso coral ink some pansy stamps using StampinUp flower shop stamp set , then using my punch i punched out 14 of the pansies, i then used my nesting pansy dies and cut out 7 of the smallest size pansies and i adhered them together to make them look like flower petals, laying one petal between the gap of two petals to give the all round flower look, then adhered the smallest one to the middle and added a white pearl to the centre, i then arranged them onto the top of the card and adhered them using liquid glue. I then used a banner stamp and stamped out the sentiment, cut around it and using double sided tape adhered that to the card. I made a triple bow in white and using a hot glue gun adhered this to the bottom of the doily. U think the colours work well and im really pleased with it, i hope you like it too, please feel free to comment or ask any questions, take care happy crafting! 😁
love nessie 💚 xx
