for MOM...



I like to make card that are not ordinary..I think some times, they are just like everyone elses, but today's card is not your run-of-the-mill card...I took a 4 1/4x11 card, and also another piece 4 1/2 x 4" (the smaller piece is scored at 1/3 of the 11 side - see your Scor-pal)






I cut out chocolate chip pieces at 3" square, and the Pixie Pink 3 1/4" x 3 1/4". I cut the chocolate squares (embossed with the dots) with the ticket corner punch and layered it over the Pixie pink. I added the silver brads to the corners, and then the letters on top. I love how the pink stands out over the chocolate cardstock!


I laid the ribbon across the middle of the card, and then added the lettered squares to the card, over the ribbons. (the ribbon is not attached). It can slide out.


I actually added the square with the white card section because I felt it needed balance, so it was added.... but it also leaves me with a space to write something mushy to my mom..



Tied up the book folds neatly and will stand up to the mailing. I have it in a regular (A2) size envelope and also then it is in a Padded envelope.
The heart is stamped with "wonderful Mother" on the heart punched piece which is layered over the heart scallop die piece..


opened up, it will sit on her counter....!
I am sending this off early (Wednesday) so it won't be late...I often times mail it too late and with this one being bulky, it needs extra time...hee hee!
