Finding Happiness

Welcome

Meet today's card.

It's just one of the new for March stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called

Heart Flowers

I added some details to the flowers using just one of the stencils from the 

Layered Tulip Field stencil set, a release from last month.

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

• I placed the new Heart Flowers stencil onto a piece of white cardstock and inked it up with my Distress Oxide inks in these colours:  Fossilized Amber and Ripe Persimmon
• I wanted to add an interesting center to the flowers, so I got out the flower centers (stencil #3) from the Layered Tulip Field and inked with some Picked Raspberry DOX ink.
• I decided to fill in some of the white space, so using an eraser on the end of a pencil and the same colours mentioned above, I added all the dots to the background.  It added to the whimsical look of the flowers.
• I stamped the sentiment into the bottom corner.
• I glued the card front onto an piece of pink cardstock, then onto a piece of yellow and then onto an A2 sized card base.
• Lastly, I added some black gems around the sentiment to finish off my card.

Here are the stencils I used:

Meet one of the new for March stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called

Layered Tulip Trio 

I used just the tulip flower heads for my card and gave the stencil a whole new look.

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

• For today's card, I decided to use just the flowers heads from this stencil, so I placed a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and then positioned the flowers from the Layered Tulip Trio stencil over the middle of my panel.  
• I wanted to make a 'sunny' feeling card so, I inked it up with some Fossilized Amber, Ripe Persimmon and a hint of Lumberjack Plaid.
• I lifted the stencil, shifted it into the other direction and inked again.
• I repeated that process until the whole panel was inked.
• Next, I splattered with my white Posca pen and set aside to dry.
• I die cut the birthday sentiment from a piece of white cardstock, then inked it with the same colours of ink that I had used for the stenciling.  To give the sentiment more prominence on the card front, I die cut it again 3 x's with some white and glued them all together.
• I glued the panel onto a piece of yellow cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.

Here is the stencil I used:
