Good Morning.
I've got 2 cards to show you today.
They both use the same stencil and same colours, but the background design looks totally different.
So, meet the newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called
So, here's what I did to create my cards.
- I placed the Chunky Chevrons stencil over a piece of white cardstock and inked it up with some Picked Raspberry and some Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide ink.
- I wiped the stencil off, flipped it upside down and inked again with the same colours in the same areas. It made a fun, patterned background.
- I placed the stenciled panel into my Misti and stamped the flowers and the sentiment.
- I splattered over the flowers with my black Posca pen.
- I glued the finished piece onto some white cardstock, then orange and then onto an A2 sized card base.
So now onto CARD #2
- I cut another piece of white cardstock and placed the Chunky Chevrons stencil onto the paper and inked with some Picked Raspberry and some Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide ink.
- I lifted the stencil off but to get a different look then the card above, I flipped the stencil upside down and then tried to match up the chevrons instead of off setting them and inked with the same colours again.
- I placed the panel into my Misti and stamped the flowers to one side and added the sentiment to the side.
- I used my black Posca pen to splatter just around the flowers.
- I glued the dried piece onto some pink cardstock and then onto an A2 sized card base.
Here is the stencil I used for both cards:

This is so bright and pretty Karen, and love the way you have flipped the stencil to make a different pattern on each, and the added teasels on the first, and the Queen Anne's Lace on the second, and two super sentiments too, finish them perfectly. x
