Exciting news!!!

Hi again!  I'm so happy you came back to visit with me this weekend.  It is so nice to share my creations with you on this blog again.  It's been a while since I did that, eh?  I missed the excitement and camaraderie of being part of a design team, so I'm here to share some exciting news with y'all.  I have joined the design team for A Colorful Life Designs!!!

A Colorful Life Designs has a wonderful variety of stencils, from sweet romantic doilies to funky psychedelic designs.  You can use so many different mediums with stencils - inks, paints, glitter pastes, texture pastes, sprays, chalks, and so much more.  I'm sharing my first Colorful Life card with you today, and I'll walk you through how I created it.

See those sweet frilly flowers in the background?  Those are created with a new set of stencils, Layered Fluffy Flowers, from the June 2019 release which is available now.  This is a set of three stencils, and they are labeled at the bottom of each stencil.  I started with the Fluffy Flower Base and I sponged some Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink onto some white cardstock.  Next, I removed the Base and replaced it with the Fluffy Flower Middle over my inked cardstock.  I sponged some Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide ink into the centers of the pale pink flowers.  After I removed the Middle stencil, I placed the Fluffy Flower Top stencil over the cardstock and sponged some Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink onto the centers of the darker pink flowers.

These stencils make it so easy to create quick floral backgrounds!  I decided to cut mine apart and sponged all the edges with the Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink for an Aged Tiles technique background.  Some ribbon, a big butterfly, and a die cut sentiment complete this card.
