Hi all. Vera here. How are you loving this month’s release? I have so much fun playing with the new sets and today I am sharing a couple cards that I made using the new sets. First up is this card I made using Climbing Peonies Layering Stencil.

I love the way this card turned out. The colors just make me happy. I simply inked up the stencil with Orchid Crushed, Dolled Up, Deep Peony, Iris Blooms, Violet Fringe & Matcha ink. I inked up half of the flowers with the pink tone and the other half with purple tone. Once that done, I trim the panel shorter than the card base. Adhere it to the card base and add a strip of gold cardstock. Once that done, I stamped the sentiment from Large Peony 4 set. Finished by adding some Light Purple Opaque Rhinestones.

For my next card I used Bright Pansies Cluster Layering Stencils.

Here, for the flowers I used Cali Blue, Periwinkle, Violet Fringe, Lemon Drop & Matcha. Die cut with the coordinating Bright Pansies Cluster dies. For the background I used Grid A2 Coverplate Die to die cut a panel. Adhere the panel to card base and then adhere the flowers with foam adhesive. For the sentiment I die cut some alphabets to spell the word birthday using Skinny Alphas Dies set. Then I simply used the word happy from one of the old set. I completely forgot to write down the set name and by the time I write this post, I can’t remember which set it is. Part of getting old, getting forgetful. Hah!!

Well peeps, that’s all from me today. I hope you enjoy today’s cards and may your day be a good one. Cheers…
