Soft Swirls Mother's Day Card


I made this pretty card using my Stampin' Up! Soft Swirls stamp and the emboss resist technique. I really like how it turned out. Emboss resist is one of my favorite techniques and I love the colors. Here's how to make it:

First cut a 6" x 9 1/2" piece of dark purple card stock and fold it in half for the base, a 4 1/2" x 5 3/4" piece of turquoise for the middle layer and a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece for the front layer.

Then heat emboss the background on white card stock using Versamark ink and white embossing powder. When cool sponge Stampin' Up! Elegant Eggplant and Tempting Turquoise ink over the embossing. The embossing resists ink so it's easily removed by wiping over it with a lightly water spritzed soft cloth or paper towel. Next attach the background to the middle layer and the ribbon around both layers. Then cut out the sentiment with a Spellbinders Labels Four Die, sponge it's edges and stamp the sentiment with Elegant Eggplant ink and attach it to the front layer with mini pop dots. Next cut out the butterfly with a Stampin' Up! Butterfly Thinlits die, attach it to the front layer with a mini pop dot, attach the middle layer to the base and enjoy!
