Happy Heart Flowers

Good Morning

Today's card was such a fun one to make. I think it turned out looking so happy.

I used 3 stencils from A Colorful Life Designs to make my card.

The new stencils for March are called 

Heart Flowers and Curvy Path 

I layered those two together and then I added details with an older stencil called Simple Mosaic.

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

• I placed the Heart Flowers stencil over a piece of white cardstock, then inked it up with some Peacock Feathers in the centers and some Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide ink along the petals of the flowers.
• Leaving that stencil in place, I layered the Curvy Path over the top of it and inked with some Villainous Potion DOX ink.  It gave the flowers a fun looking pattern.
• I removed those stencils and then using the Simple Mosaic, I added some stenciling to the flower centers and around them using some Peacock Feathers DOX ink.
• Next, I rubbed some Villainous Potion DOX ink onto a scrap of white cardstock and then used that to die cut the sentiment.  
• I die cut the sentiment shadow from the stenciled card front, then glued the sentiment onto it.
• I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of mauve cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
• Lastly, I used some foam tape to add the sentiment back over the center of my card base.

Welcome

Meet today's card using another February release from A Colorful Life Designs called Flower Mosaic.

I combined the stenciling with some white heat embossing as a resist to create my card.

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

• I took a piece of white cardstock, placed it into my Misti and stamped this Friendship script stamp over my cardstock with some Versamark ink, then white heat embossed the entire background.
• I placed the white embossed panel onto my Make Art Station and positioned the Flower Mosaic stencil over that.  I rubbed on some Uncharted Mariner Distress Oxide ink just into the center of my panel, then inked the rest of the panel with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink.
• I removed the stencil and wiped over the embossing to lift the excess ink with a paper towel.
• Next, I took the panel and die cut the heart from the center.
• I glued the piece onto some white cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
• I pop dotted the heart back into place over the large main panel.
• I took a scrap of black cardstock, stamped the sentiment and white heat embossed that as well.
• I popped the sentiment right over the middle of the heart.
