Floral Postage

Hello and Welcome

Here is another card I created using the new for February stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

Retro Flower Duo

This stencil has 2 flower designs on it and this time, I used both in combination.

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

• I die cut a piece of white cardstock with the Postage Collage die  and placed it onto my Make Art Station.  
• I masked around the squares and placed one of the flower from the Retro Flower Duo stencil over the first square and inked it up with some Lumberjack Plaid Distress ink.
• I wanted to add some depth of colour to the flowers, so I blended some Villainous Potion DOX ink right over the center of the flower.  I used some Rustic Wilderness DOX ink for the stems.
• I continued using the same colours and moving the stencil around to ink each box.
• After all the squares were stenciled, I splattered with my white Posca pen and removed the masks.
• While that dried, I stamped the sentiment, the small detail leaves on top and bottom of the sentiment and then die cut it out.
• I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of dark burgundy cardstock, then onto a white A2 sized card base.
• I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment over the background.

Here is the stencil I used:
