Wonky Lines and Lilac Dreams

I went bold with the new Wonky Lines Stencil from InkOn3! I did a bit of easy masking and Copic coloring and you can catch it all on YouTube! 

I stamped the large floral cluster from the Lilac Dreams Stamp Set onto the middle of a piece of white cardstock and did some quick Copic coloring. I have white lilacs in my backyard, so I colored the image like them - white with pale purple centers! Once the image was colored I stamped the same image onto masking paper and trimmed it out and placed the mask over the stamped and colored image. 

I placed the new Wonky Lines Stencil over the card and used Blackout Hybrid Detail Ink over the stencil. I went back and forth between purple and black, but I am SO happy I went with black! It's so bold and beautiful! When I peeled off my mask I had a nice white border around my stamped image which makes it pop off the background! 

I wanted to keep the card simple, so I die cut a sentiment from white and black cardstock and offset them and covered them and the lilac with Liquid Pixie Dust for shine. That's it! Thanks for stopping by! 

Quick & Easy Stenciled card

Hi everyone! It’s Jeannie (InsideoutJeans) on the blog today focusing on Ink on 3’s stencil set named Flora. This is a large floral and perfect to create a quick card along with the Atelier Inks. 

I started out with two pieces of cardstock. For my first one and my main card panel, I used Bee Sting Yellow and Goddess Green to ink up the leafy areas. For my second piece of cardstock, I used Bee Sting Yellow for the middle of the flower, Marigold Orange for the middle part of the flower, and then Marilyn Red for the outer part of the flower. I actually quickly trimmed the floral portion out because I wanted to add dimension and pop it up. If you wanted to skip this step, you could. 

For the card panel, I wanted to add color the panel so I blended some Peacock Blue on the edges. Even after this, I felt like something was still missing. 

I took a scrap piece of white cardstock and blended Marilyn Red, Marigold Orange, and Bee Sting Yellow together. I then trimmed two quarter inch strips from this blended piece and added it to the top and bottom. 

For my sentiment, I pulled out Lilac Dreams because there's such pretty sentiments in this stamp set. I used the Best Wishes sentiment and stamped it on black cardstock using Juicy ink. I added Arctic White embossing powder and heat set it.  

This card was so simple and easy to put together. The new stencils have been so fun to work with so I hope you're enjoying them! 

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you get inspired to create. Come back again soon for more inspiration and ideas! Happy Crafting! 

Lilac Birthday Wishes - Fold Flat Vase DIY Card

Ilda here, and I'm back again today with some more inspiration for Fleurette Blooms latest release. 

This time I am featuring the Lilac Dreams Stamp set😍

This stamp set is gorgeous! 

So elegant and perfect for so many different occasions.

I decided I wanted to create something unique with this Lilac set. I wanted my card to look like an actual vase filled with Lilacs would.

I colored my images in using my Tombow Dual Brush Markers and then cut them out with my SnC2. Don't worry you don't need a SnC machine, Fleurette always has FREE Coordinating Digital Dies available for download with your stamp purchase.

Here is what the back of my card looks like.

I have included some pictures below to help you visualize my steps.
I also have links to all my supplies over on my →blog.

 To begin I cut out 2, 2 3/4 inch circles using a Circle Die. I then sliced 1/2 inch of the bottom.
Next, I cut out the box portion of the card to measure 5 1/2 x 2 3/4 inches. Then I scored the paper at the 1/2 inch or 2 inch mark (see image).

I then assembled the box by gluing the side tab down. Once it was dry I then glued it to one of the cut circles (make sure you line up the bottom and center it on the panel).

To create the faux water look. I cut out another circle in pale blue card stock  and trimmed it like the previous ones. I then fused a plastic sleeve together in the shape of the vase to create a pocket.

Next I filled up the pocket with a few sequins for some shine and slipped the lilacs in the top opening of the pocket and glued it in place (I only glued the back of the lilacs as I didn't want any glue to show in the front. Because the paper is blocking the sequins from coming up the pocket they didn't spill out). Next I glued the other lilac bunches to the back of the blue card stock.

I then added the pocket layer to the top of my blue layer, but only gluing down the areas where the bottom of my bunch was, as I didn't want any adhesive to show. (Not shown here, but I also added a piece of vellum to the bottom half of the vase. Then I added glue only in the center where it will be hidden by the sequins). Here is what it looks like from the back all glued together.

Next I stamped my sentiment on the back panel and glued it the front panel (make sure you line up the bottom and the sides of the box when gluing it together).

Here is the finished card folded flat, which fit perfectly in a 5x7 envelope.
