Floral Theme & Sale Week- Day 5
Hi Friends! Welcome to another day of Floral Theme Week! It is Melody here today and I have a card to share that I created with the Geraniums Stamp Set and the Geraniums Coordinating Dies.
Have you purchased any of our florals? This week they are 15% off!
The Geraniums along with the Hugs Shaker makes this card perfect for a number of different occasions.
My first step was to create the checked backgrounds. I cut a piece of white card stock to fit the card front and attached the Wide Stripes Stencil to the paper horizontally across the card front. I used a pale green ink and a ink blending tool to stencil the stripes.
Next I used the stencil again changing the direction so that the stripes run vertically. In two steps I have a cute gingham pattern!
To add the sentiment I cut the Hugs Shaker Die twice, once directly into the card front to cut out the circle from the card front, and again from purple cardstock. Then I inlayed the purple die cut into the front of the card. Behind the circle I added vellum and then yellow cardstock.
I arranged the flowers and leaves around the sentiment. The images are colored with Copic Markers and the accented with a white gel pen. I finished off the card with a scattering of Pearl White Jewels.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to stop by tomorrow for more floral inspiration.
What a pretty card! The purple flowers are so beautiful and I love how you used the stencil for the gingham background :)
What a great idea to make gingham—that is one of my favorite patterns. You have me thinking of stencils in a new way…thanks. Great card.
Absolutely LOVE this card.
