If I'm not scrapbooking I'm thinking about scrapbooking!
I’m entering this card in Ellen Hutson’s Encouraging Cards for Seniors challenge so it can be sent to a quarantined resident at a senior center in Washington state. I truly enjoyed making this and hope it brings some joy to the recipient.

Happy Mother’s Day, Mommy!
If you haven’t yet tried using Distress Oxide inks, you’re missing out on some real stamping fun. I used it to create the background on this card, which you can see in full below. I applied broken china ink to the cardstock, then misted a butterfly background stamp with water and stamped it, which reacted with the oxide ink to create this pattern. After stamping the tulip and embossing it with white embossing powder, I colored it with Distress inks (spun sugar, worn lipstick, twisted citron, shabby shutters, and antique linen). Then I added some shading with colored pencils. You can’t see the shimmer in this photo, but I added clear Wink of Stella glitter to the flower after cutting it out. I die cut three square frames from white cardstock, stacked them, and backed them with patterned paper (very old My Minds Eye).
