Hand Drawn┃Mother's Day Inspiration Card

Happy Sunday, Friends!!! And… Happy Mother’s Day to YOU, if you’re a beautiful Mom or if you’re celebrating all Moms too! Well, today I’d like to share with you this quick and simple “Mother’s Day” card that, I’ve hand drawn for this special day. So, without further ado let’s jump to the step by step on how-to-make it this card ↓

To begin with, I started by tracing over a watercolor panel with a mechanical pencil the M in the center of the card panel so, to do that I lined up the M die from the Classic Alphabet Die Set therefore, after I’ve got it traced I started the hand drawing.

Once, I’ve got the floral hand drawing done with the mechanical pencil around the M and over the watercolor card panel, I used the (02 nib) from my Micron Pens set to trace once again the hand drawing to create the black outline.

Therefore, after creating the black outline, I added lots of Embossing Tool Powder to the card panel because, I’ve got the M once again traced, but this time instead of using a pen, I used the WOW! Embossing Pen as I wanted to gold heat emboss the outline of the M for a monogram look. So, after I had the traced M heat embossed with WOW! Metallic Gold Rich, I placed the card panel over my craft mat, and I water-colored the hand drawing in with a color pallet that I created by mixing a few hues from my Prima Classic Watercolor Pam Set.

Lastly, after the water-coloring was completely dry I used the (01 nib) from the same pen set to add line shading to some of the leaves as well as the flowers. Then, I also used my Uni-ball White Gel Pen to add a few highlights and details to the center of the larger flowers. Finally, after adding the highlights I trimmed down the card panel to a W 4-3/4’’ X H 4-3/4’’ size, and I mounted it with craft foam and double-sided tape to a 5X5 white card base.

To finish the card off first, I glued down right in the bottom center part of the card with liquid glue a sentiment that I had previously gold heat embossed on a piece of white cardstock. Then, I glued down the dimensional white M die-cutting letter that, I created by stacking 4X white die-cutting letters and white heat embossing it for a shiny look. By the way, I used the actual die-cutting created from the die and white cardstock. So, as finishing touches, I covered the light green leaves and smaller flowers with Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Pen, and I added Glossy Accent to the anthers of the smaller doodled flowers, and last but certainly not least, I glued down with liquid glue a few Crystal Confetti to balance the shine out.
