Caring Thoughts for Ukraine

Welcome

Everyday, we continue to hear about the horrible plight the Ukrainian people face.

I decide to use the colours of their flag to make another card in support for this senseless war.

So here's what I did to create my card.

• I began by cutting a front panel 3 3/4" square from some white cardstock.  I took out the Dot Circle stencil from ACLD and positioned it over my paper then inked up the middle area with some Salty Ocean Distress Ink. 
• When the center was inked, I inked up the rest of the stencil with some Mustard Seed DOX ink.  I should have cleaned off the stencil before adding the yellow because I did get a bit of green where the 2 colours blended together.
• I removed the stencil and placed the panel into my Misti to stamp the flowers and the sentiment.
• Using my black Posca pen, I added some splatters just over the flowers.
• I glued the finished panel onto a piece of black cardstock, then onto a white card base that measured 4 1/4" square.
• I added 2 black gems just under the sentiment.

Here is the stencil I used:
