Mother's day is coming!

Hi everyone!  How are you doing today? I hope you are good!
 

  Like a typical female I like all crafts, especially scrapbooking and embroidery. It helps me to be distracted from my daily routines. Meanwhile, my friends visit me sometimes, like all of us :-)  And once, one guy saw my projects and asked me to make a card for his mother for a special occasion. I should mention that he is a really sweet man. He asked me to make card for a special holiday called March 8th. It's like our Mother's day. You can find more info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Women's_Day

   We talk about symbols of this event; it's mimosas and tulips. Because I don't have yellow powder for heat embossing, I decided to make a tulip. And in the end I had this:

   For the internal surface of the card I made a stencil with a flower and I was using heating embossing to create it. If you do not have a heating gun, you can use a toaster or an oven (I used an oven :-). For exterior surfaces, I used embossing machine, cut and pasted a line of paper that had the same color as the card, and tied the ribbon with a small bow. On the back, I did a stamp with my logo :-)

    It's easy to make if you have the following things:

1. embossing machine;

2. embossing folder;

3. embossing powder;

4. embossing pad;

5. clean postcard and envelop;

6. glue;

7. red ribbon;

8. scissors;

9. stamp with your name and a stamp pad.

    Oh, it's a lot of things... I never imagined that... Huh... 

   Anyway, it's simple to do. If you have any questions, please ask! I would love to help :-)
