Birthday damask

I recently got this stunning Dreamy Damask layering stencil from Catherine Pooler. I decided to try it out with a couple of different colour schemes. I kept the card simple with a layering sentiment die from Gina K Designs.

Here's another card I made to join in with Donna Lewis' Finished in February challenge! I had this die cut panel in my UFO pile (held together with some Press n Seal), so I added some ink blending and some die cuts (and glitter and shine never go astray!)

 I had half of a panel left over from a card I made a couple of weeks ago, using the Rose Background stamp from Colorado Craft Company, so I coloured it (slightly differently to the last card I made!)

Feel better soon

I haven't played with this floral stamp from Wplus9 for a while - I'm glad I pulled it out! I think it's my favourite stamp from Wplus9.

I used a plate from Pink Fresh Studio for the background, and a discontinued wood-mount stamp from Hero Arts for the sentiment.
