STITCHED BLOOMS

Afternoon Enveryone,

 I hope you've had a good weekend.  It has been a gorgeous day here for Mothering Sunday.  I would normally like to get out and do some tidying in the garden, but haven't had time today with visits from the family.

My card made over the weekend in between everything else has been made to join in with the Seven Hills Crafts challenge where the theme is to use a stencil, die and sentiment, but not from the same sets.



I haven't used my Stitched Blooms dies from MFT for ages so decided to use them, together with a Punched Pattern stencil from MFT and sentiment from The Greetery.

I inked up the stencil first in Distress Oxides, tattered rose and shaded lilac and Sunray from Altenew then die cut the flowers in papers as near as I could get to the colours.  The sentiment was stamped and die cut with the matching die from the Birthday Blooms set and a few sparkly enamel dots added to finish.

I would like to enter:

Digi Choosday - Anything Goes

Thank you for visiting and have a good week.

  2. It's really pretty Lyn, the stencil work is perfect to carry the colours and draw the eye to the focal blooms.
