Wonderful Mother: Occasions Mini Well-Scripted Stamp Set

I think I may be coming down with something... Occasions Mini Mania, that is! It has been hard to drag me away from my studio this week, I have been having way too much fun with all of my new Occasions Mini products. Still need your copy of the Occasions Mini Catalog?? Just EMAIL ME and it will be on its way today!

Today's card features some of my favorite items from the NEW Occasions Mini Catalog, and goodies from my stalwart friend the2009-2010 Idea Book & Catalog.

The layout for my card was inspired by this week's Mojo Monday Sketch challenge (one of my favorite weekly challenges).

I am totally in LOVE with the 5/8" satin ribbon now available in 9 colors in the Occasions Mini. I used some in Chocolate Chip here to create a bow for the center of my flower. This is a super easy flower to create by using circle punches. The petals are 1" circles, and the center is a 1-3/4" circle (also a punch). I added a corduroy button in Pumpkin pie with a linen thread bow to top off my flower. Ohhhh! Ahhhhh! That's what I have to do every time I see the stitched felt. It is just toooo cute! It comes in a package with 52 pieces and is just $7.95. LOVE IT!

And now, darling blog visitor, the greeting "Wonderful Mother" comes from my favorite stamp set from the New Occasions Mini: "Well-Scripted". It is available in standard wood-mount, and also in the new option to clear mount.

Ribbon Butterflies

It's time for a new Late Night Stampers weekly challenge! This week, the challenge is to get creative with ribbon.

Stampin' Tips:
-I used a little linen thread to cinch together scraps of ribbon to create lovely butterflies.
-The Big Shot and Little Leaves Sizzlit make it a snap to add a some greenery to any card.
-I love to layer the Curly Label punch and Word Window punch together, like I did for the greeting on this card. Hint: Stamp first, punch second! When you stamp your greeting first, it is easy to center and straighten out the image so it looks perfectly stamped every time!
-The Circle Scissor Plus is your new best friend when it comes to circle frames! Hint: use the glass mat for best results.
