Have A Magical Day

 Good Sunday morning all!  It's stencil and Stampcut sample day today!  I started by taping the Floral Swirl Slimline stencil to a piece of white card.  I used the Custard Matt Chalk Polish through the stencil to create a pretty background.  Next I inked up the Poppy Spray Stampcut die with Black Archival ink then ran it through the die cutting machine and then repeated the process so I had two of them.  I used Distress markers to colour them (Barn Door, Mustard Seed, Crushed Olive, Forest Moss and Antique Linen).  I cut up the second Poppy Spray so I was able to use the extra poppy on top mounted with foam above the first one and some of the smaller flower and buds coming from under neath it to give more fullness to the bottom of the card.  I added a touch of glue to the centre of the poppy and sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on it.  I used the Have A Magical Day sentiment cut in both white and black (as a shadow) and glued it into the top of the card.  I completed the card with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 5 1/4"  x  9 1/2"  in size.  All for now. Sue x

    Hi Sue. Love that background and also the colour of the chalk you have used. You don't need anything to fancy to show it off. I think the smallish poppy stamp cut does a perfect job with the sentiment.

    I like the dimension you included on this card with the stenciled background. The sentiment has many uses too as it could be used for any occasion.
