A spray of flowers

Good evening,
Thank you for visiting my blog.  I have been doing part one of my Claritystampers East workshops; Great Blakenham today and Bawburgh next Saturday.  I won't post those cards yey, I'll wait until after Bawburgh, so I will show you the last of my DT cards for May.  The next lot of stamps have arrived, so I will be making cards with them tomorrow - some more lovely stamps for you to look forward to!!
There are no stamps used on this card, just  stencils - the lovely Flower Power stencil which is the same shape as Jo's bubbles  designed by fellow DT member, Jo Rice.  The two work really well together.
I used yellow fresco chalk acrylics to colour the card, then once that was dry, I attached the stencil and added grunge paste all through it.
I used the fresco acrylics to colour it once it was dry, then added a few of the smaller bubbles from Jo's bubbles in each corner.

Hope you enjoy the extra day off work (if you are lucky enough to get an extra day off - I know plenty of people still have to work!)

Take care
Janet xxx

  3. Another lovely card Janet! Did you emboss the design through the stencil, it looks as though it stands proud of the background. Very pretty design and colours! Hope you are enjoying the long weekend! :) x

    1. Well spotted! I used grunge paste, which you spread across the stencil ((a bit like plastering!) then when you lift the stencil it gives you a raised design which you can colour.
