Clean & Simple Floral Card by Farhana Sarker

A Simple Floral Card

This clean and simple card by Farhana is perfect for sending warm and caring thoughts. She features the pretty echinacea blooms from our Floral Delights Stamp Set along with our Quatrefoil Stencil.

To create this card she stamped and colored the pretty blooms, cutting them out with the coordinating Floral Delights Die Set. Next, she used a white card base and added the stenciled pattern with our with our Quatrefoil Stencil to the center, fading out the edges. The sentiment was stamped in black alongside the flowers. 

Although this card was simple to make, the end result is beautiful and elegant! We hope it inspired you to try your hand at clean and simple cardmaking. To see more of Farhana's creations you can visit her blog, Everyday Engineered. 

Orchids Card by Samantha Mann

Thoughtful Orchid Card

Today we are sharing a gorgeous floral card by Samantha that features our Orchids Stamp Set. 

She started out by creating the beautiful green background panel by using our Quatrefoil Stencil with green distress ink. She mounted this on a white cardstock base. 

Next, she stamped the pretty blooms from the Orchids Stamp Set multiple times and coloring each bundle of blooms with Zig watercolor markers. She then cut the blooms out using the coordinating Orchids Die Set. She then arranged them together, layering them and adhering them to her card with dimensional tape. Whe then added white paint splatters over the whole card to give it a fun textured look. 

 

For the finishing touch she stamped the sentiment, embossing it in white on a black background. Then she carefully cut it out and added it to her card. 

This beautiful card would be perfect for sending to a friend to let them know they are in your thoughts!

Lovely Day Tulip Card by Tatiana Trafimovich

Lovely Day for Tulips!

Today Tatiana is sharing a gorgeous tulip card, perfect for sending a happy hello!

For this lovely floral card she stamped two bundles of flowers using our Tulips Stamp Set. She colored the flowers using alcohol markers and added fun little accents with a white gel pen. Then she cut the blooms out using the coordinating Tulips Die Set. 

For the card base she created a gorgeous sparkly pattern using our Quatrefoil Stencil with shimmery texture paste! Then she cut a circle from the pattern using our Circle Frames Die Set. The circle works as a perfect place to tuck in those pretty bundles of tulips! The finishing touch is the "have a lovely day" sentiment, which she embossed in white onto black cardstock and then fussy cut out by hand. 

 

We hope you enjoyed this amazing floral creation by Tatiana today! To see more of her beautiful work, you can visit Tatiana at her blog, Tatiana Trafimovich!

 

Birthday Card with Layered Stencils by Zsofia Molnar

Stencil a Beautiful Birthday Card!

Today Zsofia has created a beautiful birthday card by layering several of our favorite stencils together! 

She started by using our Quatrefoil Stencil with a light gray ink. She added this pattern in opposite corners, lightly fading it to white on the edges. Then she used our Plaid Stencil Set and added that on the two remaining corners. For this one she used both layers of the 2 piece stencil, using teal ink with one layer and blue ink with the other layer. Again she did just a little stenciling in each corner and faded the edges. The last stencil she used was our Music Stencil, which she layered over the quatrefoil pattern. She used black ink with this pattern to help it pop. She also added subtle ink splatters for a bit of extra texture. What a gorgeous layering of patterns!

For the birthday message, she added a couple of sentiments from our Birthday Essentials Stamp Set. On the top she used the word "celebrate" and on the bottom she added the message "At least you're not as old as you will be next year" for a fun birthday greeting! A few shimmery rhinestone embellishments give the care a little bit of sparkle. 

What do you think? We hope this card has inspired you to look at your stencils and try layering some together for fun patterns! If you create any layered stencil cards, don't forget to share them with us in our Create & Share Group on Facebook. We'd love to see them!
