Hi Friends,
I found a little time this evening to make a card :) I saw the colors at Color Throwdown Challenge and really wanted to play along. I find I struggle with colour combos for my cards so challenges really help. For this particular card the colours I used were much softer than the inspiration photo.
For my card I decided to try out one of my new stencils from Pinkfresh Studio as I also wanted to play along in Pinkfresh Studio Cardmaking Day Challenge. The stencil is called Daisy Wreath and I love it. It is the first time I have used a layering stencil and wow, they are so easy to use and produce great images. Fantastic for putting together a card quickly....which is perfect for me as crafty time is hard to come by! Limited crafty time also equals some very clean and simple card designs at the moment!
Pinkfresh Studio Stencil - Daisy Wreath
Pinkfresh Studio Die - Daisy Wreath
Pinkfresh Studio Stamps - My Favorite Things to Say 2
Neenah Cardstock - Desert Storm
Pinkfresh Studio Ink - Candy Violet
Pinkfresh Studio Ink - Lavender
My Favorite Things Ink - Orange Fizz
My Favorite Things Ink - Gumdrop Green
My Favorite Things Ink - Field Day
My Favorite Things Ink - Kraft
Nuvo Crystal Drops - Ripened Pumpkin
Lucy's Cards Little Things - Sprinkles Love Story
I used a variety of inks from Pinkfresh and MFT to ink blend the image on white cardstock and die cut it with the coordinating die. I foam mounted the image onto a panel of white cardstock. The sentiment, which is from the awesome My favorite Things to Say 2 stamp set from Pinkfresh Studio, was stamped directly onto the panel using kraft ink. This white panel was foam mounted onto a card base made from desert storm cardstock. I added some nuvo crystal drops to the centre of the flowers and some cute heart embellishments around the sentiment for some added interest.
I would also like to play along in the following challenges:
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

Love how you used the softer versions of the colors! This wreath is a favorite of mine and is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis so pretty - I love the soft colours and the no-line look you achieved with stenciling. The little hearts are perfectly matched and complement your design brilliantly. Thanks so much for playing along with us at TIME OUT!
