As mentioned in my previous post Stampin’ Up! has released the lists of retiring items so I decided to feature a retiring stamp set for this week’s card. This week at Hand Stamped Sentiments we have a color challenge – Basic Gray, Regal Rose, Pink Pirouette and Pool Party.  The stamp set I selected for my mother’s day card is Flower Fest. This stamp set is retiring on May 31st. So if it’s on your list of must-haves, go to my website to purchase before it’s gone.  I also used the Mixed Bunch stamp set to create a background for the Pink Pirouette layer. The sentiment is from Delightful Dozen.  For added sparkle I used Dazzling Diamonds on the flowers. I hope you can see the sparkle when you click on the image to enlarge.
This is a simple card I CASED from the current Idea and Catalog book. Whenever I need a an idea for a card the Idea and Catalog book is full of projects and ideas. I can’t wait for the new catalog launching on June 1st.
Join us this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments for our color challenge and to be inspired by our design team. We can’t wait to see your creations.

Genny- I LOVE this set every time I see it!! I love how you showcase all those items that are going to retire- if this card doesn’t entice people to get these items, nothing will!! 🙂

Genny, your card is so pretty! I’ve never even noticed that Mixed Bunch stamp before, and it made a great backgrounder for your pink layer! A lovely mother’s day card.
