Floral Wishes


Hello and Welcome
Today's card features the new for August stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called 

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I cut a piece of white cardstock and placed it onto my Make Art Station.  I positioned the Halftone stencil over that and inked it up with some Lumberjack Plaid Distress Oxide ink.
  • I rotated the stencil from the top to the bottom and inked again.
  • I removed the stencil and inked around the edges with some more DOX ink.
  • I stamped the flower onto a scrap piece of white cardstock, stenciled it with the same stencil as above, then inked it with some Ripe Persimmon and Lumberjack Plaid DOX ink.
  • I splattered the flower head with my white Posca pen and when dry, I fussy cut it out.
  • In the meantime, I placed the stenciled panel into my Misti and stamped the whole flower to one side and the sentiment beside the flower.
  • I glued the panel onto a piece of red cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • Finally, I used some foam tape to pop the flower head into place.


Here is the stencil I used:
