Happy Wednesday! Mother’s Day is coming up next month and Giorgia is back to share this beautiful card she created using the adorable Mother and Daughter Digital Stamp set!
She colored this super sweet Mother and Daughter image with alcohol markers and color pencils.
I love how she added the flooring details. The rug that she that she illustrated also make the scene so much cozier!
I like how she added the highlights to the sentiment using pencil and white gel pen. It really makes all the difference!
Thank you Giorgia! This scene is so full of love and warmth.
Hello everyone! Women are the embodiment of love, strength and courage, and I’m super excited today to be a part of the 3rd International Women’s Day Hop!
I’m pleased to say that Penguin Palace, among many others are sponsoring this year’s hop. The first stop of the hop starts HERE, please head over to check-out the full hop list where you will find lots of wonderful inspirations from many talented artists, AND for a chance to win!
For this hop, I made a very feminine card. This colorful background was created using The Floral Wreath on our Stencils 360°TM tool, at a turning interval of 45°.
I ink blended a combination of Distress Oxide Inks including Picked Raspberry, Peacock Feathers, Bundled Sage, Cracked Pistachio, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and Wilted Violet. There was no masking needed to apply these different colors to the different elements on this stencil, and that is the advantage of using the Stencils 360°TM tool! And, there was no cleaning of the stencil in between inking!
I then cut another piece of kraft cardstock to house my sentiment. To match the theme of the hop, I chose the following scripty sentiment from the Words From The Heart (Chapter 2) stamp set:
“To the world you are a mother, but to your family you are the world”
As a new mom to my first born who just turned two years old, this sentiment really warms my heart. Like some of you, I’m now a Stay-at-Home mom since I quit my job about a year ago. I’m pretty sure we share and face some of the same challenges day in, day out; yet we choose this path, as we want to spend more time with our loved ones. And I’m so glad I did it, as no matter how frustrating it gets, there’s always a moment where I think to myself that all of the hard work is more than worth it…like the moment when my son smiles and says “I love you mommy” 🙂
I hope you enjoy the above inspiration! And I hope all of us crafters will continue to be kind, positive, humble, and always support and encourage each other as we take a step forward towards women empowerment!

Hi guys! We’d thrilled to continue on with our Sneak Peeks! Today I’ve for you another card which is on the more feminine side.
This time I wanted to create a floral card. We’ve all tried using stamps to do flowers or wreaths. What if I told you that these overlapping petals and layering were all ink blended using stencils? Interested in giving that a try?
The sentiment you see inside this card is from one of the stamp sets in this release. I’ve always loved the elegant style of scripty handwritten fonts, especially for longer sentiments like this one.
This card is for all you super moms out there! I hope you like today’s sneak peek. Don’t forget that Reveal & Inspiration Chapter begins on 9 Sep with great giveaways so stay with us!
