Mother’s Day Pumpkin — Monday Montage #137 |

Welcome to another Monday Montage blog hop! We are a group of stampers who love to share what we create with you, and all you have to do to follow along is click on the links at the bottom of each post.

Do you subscribe to Paper Pumpkin? They are kits of paper crafting goodies that include all you need to create a fabulous project each month. Most of the time, they include a stamp set that you can continue to use even after you’ve made all of the projects in the kit. The April box included a gorgeous stamp set that includes Distinktive images and some great sentiments. I decided to make a Mother’s Day card with the stamp set , so I pulled it out of the box and used some of my other supplies to make this card.

I started with a piece of watercolor paper and applied a watercolor wash of Balmy Blue ink. The flowers were stamped with Powder Pink ink and the leaves with Pear Pizzazz ink.

I die-cut the trellis in the background from vellum paper and applied it to the watercolor paper once it dried. This die and the label for the sentiment are from the Rose Trellis Thinlits dies. I added a few sequins from the Gingham Gala Adhesive-Backed Sequins pack, and some Silver Baker’s Twine.

You’re ready to hop on over to Breelin Renwick’s blog. I always love seeing what she makes! If you prefer to work your way backwards, you can jump back to Wendy Weixler’s blog. Either way, be sure to work your way through all of the blogs so you don’t miss a thing.
