Timeless Twine May Challenge: Mother's Day

 
I hope you all are having a wonderful start to your weekend!  When this post goes live, I will be sitting through my 2nd baseball/softball game of the day!  Love this time of the year but I just wish that the weather would cooperate!  Ahhh......Kansas!
 
 
I have a card to share today for the May challenge over on Twineology!  I've used some fabulous Raspberry Pink Timeless Twine by Bella Creationz.  Our challenge theme is:  Mother's Day.  I paired my twine up with a sweet "mom" die from Lil' Inker Designs that was just released. 
 
I die cut my "mom" die from chipboard and stamped it lightly with the Envelope Pattern stamp from Hero Arts for just a little added texture.  I saved the heart and used that to layer my twine on and then placed my die cut word over the top with foam adhesive!

  5. This is the perfect Mother's Day card Amy!! Love the colour combo and how that, even though you used a busier more vintage paper, you really made it modern with the vellum overlay! The stamping over the die cut is perfect and I love how you sneaked the twine into the heart cavity!!

  7. Clever idea to put the twine under the heart O! I also like the vellum to let the beautiful paper shine through. How did you make the stitchig lines? I love that. Great job!
