Blessings for a New Year




Happy New Year everyone.  I am wishing all of you the best for 2019.  I wanted to start the year off with a monochrome color Blessed card I made with the fabulous Erin Lee Creative products using the Wreath Stencil.





I started with SSS Mint Card stock. I used distress ink in Cracked Pistachio to add color to the stencil.  It was a little darker than the card stock which turned out nice. I then used applied a light shading of the same ink to a white card stock and cut out the SSS Blessed die cut twice to make it more dimensional.  I embossed a sentiment in white from the MFT Anything But Basic Friends Stamp Set. Finally I added some clear droplets from Pretty Pink Posh. I added my card panel to a white Neenah 110lb card base.



For my second card, I did the same process but left the Blessed die cut white to make it pop more and added the card panel to a Neenah Desert Storm 80lb card base. I love the way this one looks. I left off a sentiment to keep the card simple and it can be customized for the recipient on the inside.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you get creative in the new year.  
Here's to making 2019 the best it can be.  Cheers!

I used Zig markers to color in the birdies for both cards. I love how they blend so easily on Bristol Smooth card stock. For my first card I was in a rainbow mood. I used Bristol smooth card stock with the MFT cloud stencil and distress oxide inks. I had fun with this 😂. The little birdies are so cute.
