More Mother's day inspiration for Country View Challenges

 Hi everyone, I am here today with my 2nd design team make to hopefully inspire you to join our March challenge. The theme this month is "Mother's day/use a flower or floral image as your focal." You don't need a blog or an Instagram account, just head over to the group and join in with the fun! The link is Here and if you are not already a member just request to join and we will warmly welcome you. It is also be a place you can be the first to hear about workshops, the latest releases etc etc. We have a happy membership of over 370 crafters and we are growing every day. You can enter the challenges up to 5 times as you like as long as you use products from brands which are stocked on the Country View Website.

I have linked to products available on the website in my post. If they are not in stock just email Susan who will try to order them in for you. 


Here is my step by step tutorial;

I used Tim Holtz' gorgeous vault floral wreath to die cut lots of foliage in coloured and white card stock and inky mop up card and also some hearts using his stacked hearts die set. 


I made a sunny yellow background using squeezed lemonade and fossilized distress spray stain inks. 


I cut a piece of white card the same width of the card and stamped one of the sentiments from the Visible Image Golden daffodils stamp set.


I adhered the wreath from the set and added the elements as shown. 


I edged the flowers using scorched timber distress ink  on a tiny blending tool. I then added some sequins and some Stickles glitter glue to the flower group.


As a finishing touch I added hearts to either side of the sentiment.

Remember that you can find me most days over on Instagram Here @jane.tyrrell where I share many, many more makes then I have the time to blog.

I hope I may have inspired you to give our "Mother's day floral" challenge a go. There is a  fab prize up for grabs too for one randomly selected and you can enter up to 5 times! 

Bye for now,
