CARD
Mums are definitely one of symbols of fall and fall for me is all about cozy. I made a cozy birthday card featuring the new PAF set.
I used the Checkerboard Stamp Set to make the background, which I stamped using the Sunkissed Dye Ink onto a white cardstock. I trimmed the background to be about a quarter shorter in size than the card panel and adhered a strip of Parchment cardstock below. Then I adhered a white Creative Edges Lace die cut and wrapped a natural twine around the panel. Which then I foam mounted onto a white card base.
The Spider Moms were white embossed onto a watercolor paper, colored using Altenew watercolors and woodless pencils, cut out and popped up onto the card.
Which I finished off by popping up a sentiment strip.

Such a beautiful card! It is on my favorites board! Love the background, the beautiful lace border, and the bouquet of flowers.
