Sweet Note Card with Pretty Springtime Colors

Hello crafty friends! Today I'm sharing a sweet card featuring one of my favorites: A Little Note stampsHoney Cuts, and coordinating stencils by Honey Bee Stamps.  It has been so cold here and I was in the mood for some pretty spring colors to remind us all that this ridiculous cold weather will most certainly go away as we get closer to springtime!

I began by using the A Little Note stencils and blender brushes to add some teal, pink, and green inks through the stencil layers onto white cardstock. I used a variety of ink brands I have in my stash. Note: I didn't use the outline stamp from the A Little Note stamp set because I wanted a softer look for the image.

I chose a sentiment from the A Little Note stamp set and stamped it onto the banner with black pigment ink.

When I was finished coloring with all of the stencil layers, I cut out the wreath and banner with the coordinating dies. I used the other larger banner die including in the A Little Note Honey Cuts to cut out a white banner to place behind the stenciled one.

The card base is an A2 top-folding card made from teal cardstock. I added a 4" x 5-¼" white cardstock I embossed with the Woodgrain 3D embossing folder and adhered with glue.

Next I added white foam strips to the back of the wreath to adhere it to the card. Then I die cut more white cardstock with the heart die in the A Little Note die set and embossed it with the Woodgrain embossing folder. I added foam strips to the back to adhere it to the center of the wreath. More foam tape was used to adhere the banner layers to the card.

I added some pretty sparkle with some gem stickers from the Aurora Borealis Gem Stickers.

I love using stencils to color images, and I hope you've enjoyed my card making process today!  Have a wonderful day!
