Stencil Brushes on a Mother's Day Card

Hello!

It's another awesome Monday!  Jess is joining us for a gorgeous Mother's Day card.  It's less than 2 weeks away, so don't forget to make your card or cards!  The awesome part about Jess' card is that you could swap out the sentiment and use it for a birthday or thank you card.

I love the color palette that she chose for this card.  It's definitely one of my all time favorites!

She created this one layer card by started by stamping the flowers from the Love For Mom stamp set in VersaFine ink, covering it with clear embossing powder, and heat embossing it.  She then colored in each flower with Distress Inks and Stencil brushes.  This is such a cool technique!

Finally, she added in a few sequins from the Royalty, Hearts and Kisses Mix and Mint Owl Mix.

Have a great day!

I just love the soft colors she chose to color in the lilies!  That blended background also creates a nice  ground for the lilies to be on.  It helps them stand out on the card.

 She embellished the card with the Royalty sequin mix.  Wouldn't you agree that sequins always add that little extra touch that complete the card?  Love them!

Have a great day!

She created the background with the Prima water-soluble oil pastels.  These blend really well with water and have great color.  After it was dry, she heat embossed the sentiment from the Scripty Sentiments in white for the focal point and then stamped the rest with black ink.

She then stamped the chevron pattern with the oil pastels to match the background.  The final step was adding the sequins from the Hearts and Kisses Mix and the Royalty Mix.

Have a great day!
