Good morning! I often make multiples of cards, but I generally vary something between the two. Today is the exception on these birthday cards using one stenciled panel, and various supplies from Simon Says Stamp. These cards were basically an excuse to use one new product that I had been itching to play with!
I started off by using a stencil I hadn't had a chance to use either - Mosaic Petals. I inked up the layers with Zest, Honey, Grapefruit, and Mandarin inks, then used the new Gold Sparkle Paste from SSS - and the photos don't do it justice! It is stunning! When I saw it, I fell in love, and hadn't had a chance to use it yet. It will definitely be a favorite! Anyway, once that panel fully dried, I cut it in half diagonally, then trimmed it to fit the front of an A2 card. I added a border of Honey Gold cardstock to make it pop off the background, and adhered it with sturdy adhesive, and a single foam strip along the diagonal edge to let just that part pop up for dimension. I added a sentiment from Big Scripty Greetings, a bow from Pretty Bows 2 cut from more Honey Gold cardstock, and then embellished with a sprinkle of Dazzling Gems in Gold to finish off! Here is a closer look at these finished cards:
