Hello everyone!
Today I am sharing my DT card for the new challenge on the Polkadoodles Challenge Blog. We were challenged to make a Mother’s Day card using a digital stamp from the Lucy Monkman collection. I chose the digital stamp “Cute girl with flowers and bow/angel”. Perfect for a Mother’s Day card. I combined it with the “Pretty Winnie Daisy Papers” digital paper set and a sentiment from the “Mother’s Day Sentiments” set.
So, let’s talk about how I made this card.
Measurements
- My base card measures 15 centimetres by 10,5 centimetres. You will need a piece of card stock measuring 21 centimetres by 15 centimetres. Score at the long side at 21 centimetres.
- A piece of digital pattern paper measuring 15 centimetres by 3 centimetres.
- DCP paper to print your digital stamp and sentiment on.
Digital stamp and colouring
I printed the digital stamp on DCP paper and coloured it with my alcohol markers.
- Skin: Peachy Blush, Salmon Pink, Barely Beige.
- Hair: Caramel, Walnut and Clay.
- Dress: Teal Blue, Cool Mint, Mint Macaron.
- Wings: Cool Shadow.
- Flowers: Peony Purple, Rose Pink, Pastel Pink.
- Leaves: Grass Green and Weeds Green.

Assembling this Mother’s day card
I wanted to keep the card clean and simple. So, I decided to make a strip of digital pattern paper on the left side of the card.
For the strip of the patterned paper, I die-cut a little border on the right side of the paper. I glue this down on my base card. I placed a piece of ribbon to make the border more interesting and placed three pink pearls on the left side.
On the left side of the card, I place my digital stamp on top of my sentiment.
And the card is ready.
I hope you’ll check out all the design team cards on this week’s challenge and add yours!
