Warm Greetings to All,
Am totally thrilled to be part of Altenew Celebrating Parents Card Drive 2024.
Thank you so much, Altenew for this Awesome opportunity.
You would have arrived from Yoosun Hur ‘s blog. Hop over to the Altenew blog to check all the stops and beautiful cards churned by the Wonderful Artists around the world.
South Indians call their Mother as AMMA, and I grew up with my granny and lovingly call her MA. These words are SO much filled with emotions and must say, all my Creative Streaks are from both of them! Today’s card is dedicated to to them.
Over to my card,
My card features Pond Flowers Die Set.
Other products are:
Artists’ markers (Alcohol markers)
Poured Acrylics 6×6 paper pack
Fine Alphabets Die Set
Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp set
Framed Sentiments Die Set
Mix & Match Frames Die Set
I have die cut the pretty florals using Pond flowers Die set from coloured cardstocks and added depth and shadows using Artists’ Alcohol markers. Included white gel accents on leaves and floral die cuts for added interests. Created a shaker card using patterned paper from Poured Acrylics 6×6 pack for the Pond Die cut and added heart shaker elements with a frosty thick acrylic sheet on top to the pond die cut.
The word AMMA is also from the same patterned paper (used for the pond) using Fine Alphabet Die. All the florals and Word die cuts are assembled on top as shown here. The green focal panel is from same pp pack and its diecut using Mix & Match Frame Die set. It’s added using strong liquid adhesive. Sub sentiment is stamped on to pp and die cut using Framed Sentiments Die set and added just below the word AMMA. The focal panel is then added to the Off white card base to finish off the card.

Hi from North Carolina!!
Beautiful card, love the dainty flowers and the patterned paper. Love it! ❤️
Sathya, your card is gorgeous and actually hits home in an unusual way. See, I am originally from Colombia and my mother would call her mother AMMA. I meant so much to hear those words when she called and spoke with my grandmother. The relationship they had was very special so when I saw that on your card, I was stunned. The card itself is so beautiful from the rich deep green acrylic pour paper to the flowers and the design…well, what can I say but perfection. Thank you so much for lifting my spirit and inspiring me to send some Mother’s Day cards to my aunts in Colombia (my grandmother passed about 5 years ago). I hope I can put a smile on their face like you did mine. Thanks for the inspiration!
