I love fun folds. It has been a while since I've had some time to play so I started off with a simple one. This is just a standard z-fold pattern. I found this really pretty floral paper in a paper pad I had. I thought it captured the essence of this woman perfectly. She just looks so free and happy. I hope that comes across in the card design as well.
Copic Colors used:
Red: R37, R35, R32, R30. I added some clear wink of stella to add some sparkle.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there. I know this Mother's day is going to be a little more difficult for many. I would normally spend the day with my Mom, but due to social distancing, we will be home. I wanted to make an extra special card this year. I hope when this is all over we can have a big party to celebrate all the holidays we've missed this year.
Measurements and copic colors can be found at the bottom of this post. If you'd like to see how I made this card click here. This video will not play in email.

Giraffes are such funny lovable animals. I love this image of these two hugging. I left the front blank. I wasn't sure if I wanted to use this as a baby card or maybe a Mother's Day card. What do you think? What sentiment would you put on it?
Happy Mother's Day to all the Mother's out there. I hope you enjoyed some festivities today. Connor and I weren't able to make it home this year to celebrate with our Moms. So earlier this week we made our Mom's cards. When this all started, I thought I'd be making two cards on my own. I was surprised when he said he wanted to make his Moms. I just purchased this new Super Hero set and found some inspiration on the companies blog.
Together we created these cared together to send to our MOMs.
This is Connor's Card. He did all the coloring himself. He would only let me include this one picture.
Here is the card I colored:
I made my own glitter paper for the star and face mask. I love how it turned out!
On the inside I included a poem/note:
There will be so Many Times You will feel like You've Failed,
but in the Eyes, Hearts, and Minds of your Children.
You are Super Mom.
I liked this card so much, I made a few more. I just changed the words around. I love the unusual colors of this car and layout. Sending a big thanks to the MFT blog for the inspiration.
