I have made a slimline card with the pretty new Simon Says Stamp Floral Border stencil, from their newest Make Magic release!...
I thought this stencil was so pretty, from the moment I laid eyes on it! I also decided that the four petaled flowers were going to be daisies, from the moment I laid eyes on this stencil! The only thing is...to make white daisies with a stencil means you have to brush the color onto a colored piece of cardstock, if you want the daisies to show! I tried gray cardstock...nah...and then chose this very light blue...kind of gave it a sky kind of feel. I used the amazing Simon Rainbow Blender Brushes to apply the colors to the stencil. I first applied the white ink, then yellow, then the pink for the tulips. After that, it gets a little tricky. I masked all the flowers, and then blended the leaves and stems. This is what it looked like after applying the green...
I added a CZ Design die cut sentiment, layered and with a border that matched the card. Here's a close up...
The colors on this card are subtle, but I had such fun seeing my idea through to the end...anything for a daisy!! Hope you're having a great start to your week!
Thanks, so much, for visiting me today!!
