Birthday Flowers

What a fun card this new for May stencil from a Colorful Life Designs made.
So meet the newly released stencil called:

Here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Flower Rays stencil over a piece of white cardstock and inked some of the flowers with some Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink.  Next, I inked some with Ripe Persimmon and some Broken China DOX ink.
  • Leaving the stencil in place, I used a fine line black marker to trace around the outlines in the stencil to help define the flowers.
  • Next, using the end of a pencil eraser, I added the dots in the same colours as the flowers.
  • I stamped the sentiment in my Misti with some black ink and then die cut it into a circle.
  • I glued my stenciled card front onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto a piece of pink and then onto a white A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment up over the background.

Here is the stencil I used:

Cheers to Another Year

Good Morning
One last card using this month's new releases from A Colorful Life Designs called 

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Diamond Circle stencil over a piece of white cardstock and began inking in the center with some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink. Moving outwards on the stencil, I inked with some Broken China DOX and lastly around the edges with some Cracked Pistachio DOX ink.
  • While that dried, I die cut the sentiment with some green cardstock.  
  • I wanted to help the sentiment show up better against the background so I die cut the Burlap Texture with some white cardstock.
  • I glued the stenciled card front onto a piece of green, then onto a white A2 sized card base.
  • I glued the burlap over the middle and then added the sentiment.

Here is the stencil I used:

Wavy Hexagons


Welcome
Today's card features another new for April stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

Here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Wavy Hexagons stencil over a piece of white cardstock and inked it up with some Broken China Distress Oxide ink.
  • I moved the stencil down slightly over the pattern and inked again with some Prize Ribbon DOX ink. It created a fun look to the stenciled image.
  • I splattered with my white Posca pen and set aside to dry.
  • I placed the sentiment into my Misti and stamped with some more of the Prize Ribbon DOX ink.  I die cut that out and glued it onto a blue die cut hexagon.
  • I glued my stenciled card front onto a piece of white cardstock, then blue and then onto a white A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment over the middle of my card front.

Here is the stencil I used:
