The Best of Wishes

 

Welcome

Today, I am playing with 2 new stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called Monstera Leaves and Script stencils.

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

• I laid a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and positioned the Monstera Leaves stencil over that.  
• I inked up the leaves with some Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink and then added some Lucky Clover DOX ink to give them a bit more dimension.
• Leaving that stencil in place, I positioned the Script stencil over that and inked it up with some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink.  It gave the leaves a lot more interest.
• I inked up a dots stamp with some more Cracked Pistachio ink and randomly stamped that in the open areas between the leaves.
• I die cut the leaf twice, once from white and then from a piece of leftover inked green that I splattered with my white Posca pen.  I glued them together and set aside to dry.
• I stamped the sentiment in my Misti and die cut it out.
• I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of green cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
• I popped the sentiment over to the side at the bottom and then popped the leaf over that using some foam tape.

Here are the stencils I used:
