Split Floral Squares Cards



Good morning!  Today I'm sharing two cards made with the same stenciled panel but with different colors and sentiments.  Which one do you like - the dark green floral on the white card or the white floral on the sage card?

I began both of these cards by working on the stenciled kraft panel.  I placed the new Square to Circle stencil from A Colorful Life Designs (use code HollyFan10 to save) onto some kraft cardstock and brushed some kraft ink over the stencil.  After I removed the stencil, I lightly stamped the panel with a crackled background stamp and splattered some white paint all over.  After the paint was completely dry, I cut the panel in half at a diagonal.  One half was glued to a white card and the other half was glued to a sage card.  I die cut the floral sprig from a dark green cardstock and a white cardstock and placed those on each card, and then added some stamped and cut sentiments.  The white card got some Opaque Iridescent Christmas Green Card Bling while the sage card got some Satin White Card Bling.  Isn't that Card Bling just yummy?

It is really fun to see how two cards can look so different just by changing up the colors.  Don't be afraid to stamp over your stenciled panels - that really adds a great faux texture to your backgrounds.  Have fun shopping at A Colorful Life Designs and remember to use the code, HollyFan10, to save some money when you check out.  Have a wonderful day!
