Mother's Day Bookmarks

This is a double pocket card that holds two bookmarks. The double pocket card was made from a two-sided piece of patterned paper, Bella Rose, by Stampin' Up!

The bookmarks were measured and cut then stamped with stamps from the Wild Rose stamp set by Stampin' Up! There is enough white space on the bookmark to allow for a special message to Mom. Wishing all the Moms out there a wonderful Mother's Day! Thanks for stopping by today! Have a GREAT day!!

Roses for Mom

Here is another Mother's Day card idea that uses the Stampin' Up! two-step stamping technique. This card was made using the Wild Rose and All Year Cheer II stamp sets by Stampin' Up! This is a very simple, quick, and easy card to put together. You could also dress it up a bit by adding ribbon or other embellishments.

The "white space" of the card front was minimized by using a "scrungie-plungie" (that's really what it was called!) that was purchased years ago at my local stamp store. Basically, it is a piece of a plastic kitchen pot scrubber that was mounted onto a wood handle (at a quick glance it looks like a miniature plunger). You tap the plastic mesh end onto your ink pad, then transfer the ink to your card front by pouncing. This effect can also be accomplished by using an artist spritzing tool with markers.
