Amazing Ginger Flowers

Good morning!  Today I have a card to share with you which features the gorgeous Double Ginger Flowers stencil from A Colorful Life Designs (use code HollyFan10 to save).  This flower is just stunning and I couldn't bear to cover up any of that floral detail, so I went with a clean and simple approach.

I created a card base by cutting some white cardstock to 4.25"x11" and folded it in half at 5.5" to create an A2 card.  Next, I placed the Double Ginger Flowers stencil over the front of the white card and taped it down with some low tack tape.  Then I used a blending brush to add some pale orange/tan ink over the stencil, just to lay down some soft color over the whole thing.  I used a darker orange/brown ink at the base of the flowers, blending it up towards the paler color for a smooth gradient.  After I removed the stencil, I stamped the sentiment with a dark brown ink and added some Card Bling (some fun freebie sequins that come with every order from A Colorful Life Designs).
