Quilt Card for Grandma!

Hello, So glad you could stop by. I have been so busy in my Craft Room. I have several projects going. But all projects were put on hold today because I had to make a very Special Card for a very Special Person. I made a Birthday Card for my Grandma Sophie.

Today is her Birthday! She is 101 years old. It's hard for me to put into words how Wonderful it is to have her in mine and my families lives. She is such a Blessing.

I call her Mamaw, most Grand Mother's are called Mamaw around here.

Mamaw Loves to make Quilt's and has made and given away many to her family. I have one and Cherish It.

So today, when trying to figure out what kind of card to make her, I thought hey, why not a Quilt Card.
So I picked out some cardstock that I thought would go together and here is the card that I came up with.







Supplies used:

Cardstocks- Blue Bayou, Purely Pomegranate, Pink, Very Vanilla
Flower Card Stock from My Minds Eye- Blush Sweet

S.U. Sizzlets Little Leaves Die

S.U. Oval Scallop Punch

S.U. Large Oval Punch

S.U. Scallop Circle Punch

S.U. 1- 3/8th Square Punch

S.U. Sincere Salutations Stamp Set

Embossed the squares with the Square Lattice Folder from S.U.

For the Flower, I punched out five Scallop Circles and wet them with water. Scrunched them up. Let them dry some. Opened them up part way and let them dry rest of the way.

Sponged Purely Pomegranate Ink on the edges. Glued all of the pieces together and added a Sparkly Pearl in the center and added a Purely Pomegranate Ribbon.

I really think she is going to Love her Card. Combines two of her favorite things. Quilts and Flowers.
Hope you enjoyed seeing the card that I made. Thanks again for stopping by.    Cindy
