Now on to my cards for today's part of the hop!

I started by adhering the Funky Leaves Stencil to some Neenah Solar White cardstock. I then used a palette knife to add Paper Glaze in Fern Green, Leaf Green and Succulent Green over the stencil. When I removed the stencil, I sprinkled the panel in patches with WOW Embossing Glitter in Emerald City and Calypso. I then heat set the embossing glitter before the Paper Glaze had fully dried, so I got some bubbling, which created even more texture. 

I cut the panel down and mounted it on a mat of green cardstock, and then onto a white card base. I stamped the Thanks sentiment from the "A Little Nuts" stamp set in Picket Fence Studios black ink.

For my second card, I used the Flowers in a Heart stencil and inked it with Distress Oxide Inks in Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet using my Picket Fence Studios Life Changing Blender Brushes. I then used a foam blending tool to add Versamark ink over the pink and purple inks, so that I could then add some Clear Sparkle Embossing Glitter over the top. I heat set that, before stamping the wedding sentiment from Fancy Sentiments onto a scrap of purple cardstock in Versamark. I added Metallic Silver Regular embossing powder to the sentiment, heat set it, and then fussy cut around the sentiment before adhering it to my card with foam mounting tape.

I made a 3rd card, too - specifically because I wanted to use a rainbow of embossing powders!

I used the Mermaid Scales stencil with Versamark ink, before adding WOW! embossing powders in

Primary blue tang, Metalline Green, Honeydew, Tangerine dream and Primary Apple red. I used the "Seriously" word die, and the stamped sentiment is from Small Ways to Say Thanks.

Your next stop on the hop is Heather Mitchell - I can't wait to see what she has created!
