Shirley Is the hostess for this next challenge at Seize the Birthday. I really when overboard with the stenciling! Not a surprise! I stenciled the background and the panel. I wish that I had used less ink the background, but I am anxious to see what you do. This is an opportunity to add to your collection of birthday cards.
Remember if you are not into toppings, just make sure it is a birthday card.
But ifs you use the topping, you may have a chance to be a guest designer on our next challenge.
Here is my example for you.
Supplies for this card are:
Gina K Master Layouts 2, Fancy Floral Layering Stencil bundle
Moonlit Fog ink on the background stencil
A script stamp from my stash
Gina K inks
Grass Green, Lovely Lavendar, Wild Lillac
White and Black Gina K card stock
Greeting is Radiant Roses Greeting
Leslie is our Surprise Party Guest for this challenge.
Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments!
Wow, Barb! Not overboard at all. Just gorgeous! The gray is a nice background color for your fun flowers, and I love the combo of stenciled pattern and stamped script.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great idea to use two different patterns of stencils on one card. I am going to have to give this a try very soon. The color of your flowers were really complimentary to the grey backgrounds. This is a very pretty card, Barb!
ReplyDeleteOh I adore all of the layering of stenciling, so much fun! From your soft subtle and pretty background to the script stenciled panel and then topped off with your gorgeous florals! This is beautiful on every layer! Love it!
ReplyDeleteLovely card, Barbara with the stenciled backgrounds to showcase that pretty floral. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Barbara. I too used a stencil for a gray background, but only on part of the background. I like how you layered the flowers and mats.
ReplyDeleteI love the background stencil you've used for this - I thought it was a piece of dp. The flower really pops against the script and the stencil!
ReplyDeleteLove the stencilled background Barbara and the script stamp looks great ( I might have that stamp and it has been sadly neglected!) The pretty stencilled florals pop against the greys, clever design, Cathy x
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Barbara, and I don’t think you overdid it at all on the background - I’d be happy with it! Love the script panel and flowers too.
ReplyDeleteI disagree! I think you used the perfect amount of ink for this color. Also loving the scripty background on your beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love, love, LOVE this. That gray background is a perfect backdrop for those gorgeous purple flowers. And the scripty panel is perfect too. This is simply FABULOUS, my friend!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so lovely Barb! I love the colours you chose. The elegant sentiment is perfect with your other classy elements. Great card.
