Mother's Day card using Remarkable You stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Remarkable You Stamp Set


Digging through my stamp shelves to clear out space for my Stampin' Up! preorder from the June 1 catalog arriving later this week, I came across one of my favorite retiring sets. . .  Remarkable You.  Playing with this set is like taking a walk down memory lane.  This set creates stunning cards.  I'm so sad that it is the last chance some of you will have to get this set.  In three weeks, the remaining retiring stamp sets will disappear from the catalog.  Be sure to order this set by May 25 if you plan to add it to your collection.  

I'm using this set to make a fast, simple Mother's Day card.  It is one of the cards we'll make in my card class this Saturday.  




I began with a thick Whisper White Base card.  Then I used a layer of Whisper White dry embossed with the Garden Trellis Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  

The image from the Remarkable You stamp set was first stamped in VersaMark and then covered with Silver embossing powder.  Then I used my heat Tool to set the embossing powder. 
  


Flower created with Silver Embossing Powder


I selected a sentiment from the Occasion catalog set called, "A Mother's Flair," and stamped it in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. 






  

The ribbon is a 1/8" silver ribbon, and it is tied in a simple knot.  This is such a simple card, yet very elegant in its simplicity.



Recipe:

Stamps:  Remarkable You, A Mother's Flair
Ink:   VersaMark, Tuxedo Black Memento
Paper:  Whisper White    
Accessories:  Garden Trellis Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Silver Embossing Powder, Embossing Buddy, Heat Tool, 1/8" Silver Ribbon, Paper Snips, Bone Folder, Stampin' Trimmer, Multipurpose Glue, Dimensionals, Mini Dimensionals
