Hi there crafty friends. Vera here. Today, I want to showcase the gorgeous Peony Border Stamp & Peony Border Layering Stencil set. I love this sets that somehow I ended up with 4 cards. Was only planning to do 1 or at the most 2. But hey, when mojo cooperating, might as well take advantage of it, right?

For my 1st card above, I use the stencil set directly on the card base. I used Hot Tourmaline and Spring Salad. Yep, I only used 2 colors. Pressure and color layering helps make the different color value on the flowers. Finish with sentiment from Fancy Script set.

Using just the stencil gives a softer look, but you can step it up by using the coordinating Peony Border Stamp.

The result is a bit more intense. Here, for the leaves I decided to use Moonlight ink. For my next couple cards, I went with more colorful design.

I used Dolled Up, Corraline, Matcha and Iris Blooms. Done with the coloring, I die cut the middle using Peony Border Coordinating dies and hand cut the remaining part to split the frame to 2 pieces. Adhere each piece to card base and finish with sentiment from Summer Blooms set.

I feel quite productive that I was able to finish 4 cards in 1 seating. The beauty of creating with stencils. Well friends, that’s all I have for today. I hope you enjoy the cards. Till next time. Cheers…
