Loving Memories -- Spring Flowers, Stenciling, and Die Cut Layers

Hello crafty friends! Today I am sharing my card that features the beautiful Eternal Love stamps and Honey Cuts. While this card is a sympathy card, I think that it would work as many other types of cards with a quick change of the sentiment.

First I stamped the morning glory image from the Eternal Love stamp set in a black Copic marker safe ink. I love blue morning glories so that's why I chose this color! The Copic marker colors I used are:

• Blue morning glories: B37, B34, B23, B21, B000, B000, YG01, YG03
• leaves: G28, YG67, YG17, YG25, YG25, YG03

Next I cut them out with the coordinating die. I added foam dots to the back and set them aside to work on the other card elements.

I die cut the following from 80# Neenah white cardstock with the following sets: two frames from Lace Heart Layering Frames, two pieces of ivy from Lovely Layers: Greenery.

I adhered the largest Lace Heart Layering Frame to an A2 card base with glue. Then I used the Vintage Flourish stencil and an ink blending brush to add Faded Jeans Distress Ink to two corners of the other die cut frame. I faded off the ink to leave the center of the frame white.

After I adhered the stenciled frame to the card with foam tape I trimmed the two pieces of Lovely Layers: Greenery ivy to fit the design of my card and tucked one under each of the colored images.

Next I stamped the sentiment found in the Eternal Love stamp set with black pigment ink and cut it out with the coordinating die.

For a touch of subtle bling, I added some pretty coordinating pearls from the Happy Hearts Pearl Stickers.

It was quite enjoyable to spend a bit of time with my neglected markers to color these beautiful images. I find coloring very relaxing--do you? I hope you've enjoyed my card today and that you have a wonderful day!
