Simply Stenciled Flowers

Hello again. Today was the day of the Concord & 9th ‘In The Classroom – Spring Edition‘ and I watched the videos of the class – but went my own way with the products from the first class. Here is what I created:

For a change, I went for a simple one layer card, and used the colours from the Color Hues Challenge.

The card panel is a cream hammered card – I thought this would give some interesting texture to the ink blending.

Onto that panel, and using each of the four layers of the stencil, I went in with blue inks from Pinkfresh Studio, and tried to concentrate the colour towards the bottom of each image – the petals and the leaves – to create a little more dimension. I used a grey ink for the leaves and stems, also trying to create some shading.

I feel the outcome looks a little like water-colouring, so I didn’t go in with the stamps to match the image. There are outline stamps, and detail stamps for the leaves and flowers – I like the soft look.

I then stamped the sentiment, and added the panel to a card base.

Here is a picture I have darkened to try and show the texture of the hammered cream card:

I’ll be playing with the products from this event over the coming days, and you may see further creations….
