Today I've created two simple cards to share with you. For my first card, I used the
Mega Hydrangea Stencil to create a background for the embellishments. I decided to go for a bright yellow and pink colour combo and applied Altenew inks (Buttercream, Mango Smoothie, Warm Sunshine, Frosty Pink, Cotton Candy and Coral Berry) with sponge daubers. Then I added some pink and yellow splashes of paint to the background.
Next, I used a washi tape and leaves die cut from the
Fantasy Floral 3d Die Set. To finish the card I added my sentiment. I used a negative die cut panel I had sitting on my desk (it was created with the
Fine Alphabet Die Set) and I added the “you” die cut from the
Flower Arrangement Die Set on top.
For my second card I used another beautiful stencil called
Feeling Dotty and I have lightly sponged it over with Frayed Leaf ink.
To finish the card, I again used die cuts from the
Fantasy Floral 3d Die Set and a negative die cut panel from my leftovers stash.
That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is amazing
Lydia Evans and I can't wait to see what she came up with today!
Thanks for stopping by today!
