Happy Birthday Wishes

Good Morning
Doing some stencil layering this morning with 2 new stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called
Combining the 2 made for a fun background.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Double Honeycomb stencil onto a piece of white cardstock and inked that up with some Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink.
  • I removed that stencil and placed the Clover Trellis stencil over my panel and inked with some Rustic Wilderness DOX ink.  
  • While that dried, I die cut the birthday sentiment with some white cardstock 2 x's, then I die cut it again with a piece of shiny black recycled paper and glued those together.
  • I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto a piece of green and then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • Finally, I glued the sentiment to the center and added some black gems around it 

Here are the stencils I used:

Another fabulous pairing of stencils Karen, and wonderful in the green tones and finished perfectly with the black die cut sentiment. x
