April Showers Card by Larissa Heskett

April Showers!

Have you had a rainy Spring where you live? Here at NND headquarters in Wisconsin we have had quite a few rainy days so this card by Larissa is perfect! For her card today she features our fun April Showers Stamp Set, using the large sentiment from this set as the focal point of her card! She embossed the sentiment with a glittery black embossing powder and inked over it with blue ink to give it some dimension. She framed this sentiment with purple patterned paper using the frame with the inner scalloped edge from our Framework Die Set. Then she used the little garland of flowers from our Woodland Spring Stamp Set, coloring the image twice and using the coordinating Woodland Spring Die Set to cut it out and place it on the top and bottom of the framed image. Such a wonderful embellishment!

To make this card even more special she created a stunning background by combing our Plaid Stencil Set and Argyle Stencil Set. Both of these stencil sets have two pieces so you can line them up and layer them to easily create two color backgrounds. Larissa went the extra mile, using all four stencils to create a stunning background with 3 different colors and one layer of glitter! WOW!

Here is a close up so you can see all the wonderful pattern and texture:
