Stenciled Flowers

 Hi there.  Today I'm sharing a card made last weekend.   I was playing with an Altenew stencil set, it's matching die  and Altenew inks.  

The stencil and die set is called Flower Bunch.  I started by die cutting and then used the stencil to add the inks.   The flowers were done in Pastel Sunrise, Canyon Clay and Burnt Red with Moon Rock and Lava Rock for the centre.  The buds were done with Fresh Lemon and Honey Drizzle.  For the leaves I used Silver Sage, Jade and Eucalyptus.  Before adding the die cut to my panel, I used a stencil from Faith Pocock Designs with some orange ink on my blending brush.   I mostly did the stenciling in the bottom left and top right.   A simple sentiment finsihed the card. 

As I'm writing up this post, I am watching the King of England's coronation.  So much pomp and ceremony.   And what a piece of history in the making.    Currently the coach procession on the way to Westminster Abbey is under way.  It's fabulous seeing places I have visited in the past.  

Hope you are having a great weekend and get some crafting done.
