Curtain Fold Mother's Day Card

I thought I had 2 more weeks until Mother's Day - I guess I was wrong!  We all went away this weekend to the Amish Country to celebrate my daughters 50th birthday, and we had a great time!  The kids had a ball in the pool!  We had great weather.  It was so nice to be outside without a coat!  When I was asked what I wanted to do for Mother's Day, I said Oh, we have time and everyone laughed!  After catching up with the laundry today, I decided I had better make some more cards.  I had seen this video on - Barbstamps.com - and decided to make some for Mother's Day.  I had made this type awhile ago, but I really liked how she made hers.  Here is my take on the card.

She used the upcoming Share What you Love Bundle, but I actually continued my hunt for scraps to use and succeeded in getting some the right size.  I used Old Olive for my base CS and found a perfect match for my ribbon.

That's what I love when you CASE something, you can make it your own with the stash you have on hand.  Instead of white, I used some of my small metallic foil doilies.  I didn't have the tri punch she used, so I substituted some little hearts that have been hanging around for awhile.  Here is the inside of my cards.

I used the Perennial Birthday stamp again for the sentiment.  These came together really quick which is what I needed.  I'm so use to making a portrait size card, I stamped the sentiment the wrong way.  I had cleaned and put everything away when I realized what I did, so everything was dragged out again to stamp it in landscape.  Here is another great card to make with scraps.  Well, I have to go out these in the mail.  Have a great week!
