Lately, I’ve been on this kick of shopping my own stash to make cards. It’s so easy to purchase a bunch of stamps, dies, stencils that accumulate in my drawers and sometimes they’re there for months before I release it!
So, I decided to go back through my collection and break out supplies I haven’t used or haven’t used in a long time and that was the case with the stencil I used for these cards.
I revisited the Hero Arts Bold Florals stencil, one of my favorites, and used Pink Fresh Studio inks to do my ink blending and I had a ball making my backgrounds. I used these colors: Key Lime, Blue Jay and Bubble Gum.
I then took Waffle Flower Crafts “Additional Circles” die to cut out the centers. After that, I stamped my sentiments from Simon Says Stamp and die cut some hearts also from Simon to fill the space. I also wanted a little extra color there so I die cut the circles with green and white cardstock to give a little color border around the circle die cuts.
I added some shimmer to my hearts with Nuvo Aqua Shimmer pen and sprayed some Hero Arts Shimmer spray.
I love all the bright colors from the inks!
