Hello crafty friends, it's Rick back with you again this week to share a springtime birthday card with you. This card actually came together super easy. Especially with the help of the Deco Flower 6 x 6 Layering Stencil Bundle from The Rabbit Hole Designs. If you have not seen this cute set of stencil and the floral background that it creates you are missing out.
Springtime Birthday Card: Deco Flowers Layering Stencil | The Rabbit Hole Designs
My card today features the Deco Flowers Layering Stencils, the Mindful Magnolia Stamp Set (from the Rabbit Hole Designs). I did my ink blending with the Bitty Bunny Blending Brushes (also from the Rabbit Hole Designs) using inks from Pinkfresh Studio.
The Deco Flower 6 - Layering Stencil Bundle comes with the six layering stencil to create the floral background pattern that you see on my card today. But it also comes with a coordinating die to cute out one of the flowers. You can actually cut out any of the flowers from the design using this one die. Which opens up the possibilities for so many more projects.
Each stencil is numbered and it's actually more easy to line them up than you may think. I made about four different backgrounds in about an hour. And could have made more if I didn't have to come in to cook dinner. I cut this panel down to a 3 3/4" x 5" and popped it onto a mat layer cut from black cardstock (cut at 4" x 5 1/4") and attached it to a standard A2 size card base.
To finish off my design I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Mindful Magnolia Stamp Set onto a piece of white cardstock in black ink. I trimmed down the sentiment into a smaller strip and matted it with a layer of black cardstock before attaching it to the center of my card. Then all I had to do was add a few of the Matte White Enamel Dots sprinkled around the card.
And there you have it, how I made this super quick springtime birthday card. I hope that you give this new stencil a try. I do have one piece of advice to share with you. I did find it much easier to ink up using the Bitty Bunny Blending Brushes instead of the larger Cottontail Blending Brushes, just because of their size. I would highly recommend pick up a few of them when you order this stencil bundle. You can thank me later.
