One Stencil Set, Three Color Combos

Hello and welcome! Seeka here and today I'm sharing a collection of cards featuring the new Color Layering Folk Art Stencils set. I had so much fun switching up the colors to get three completely different vibes!
This stencil set includes three easy-to-layer stencils and each layer is numbered for easy reference.

For my first variation, I used Orchid and Grape Juice inks for Layer 1. I used a blending brush to apply Orchid over the entire stencil and then blended a bit of Grape Juice to add some deeper purple shading to the flowers. For Layer 2, I used Granite and then added a little bit of Nautical for a muted navy color. For Layer 3, I used just Granite.
For my second card, I used Ultra Pink for Layer 1, blending lightly and then more intensely to create a bit of shading. For Layer 2, I used Aquatic. And for Layer 3, I used Arctic.
And for my third card, I used Dandelion and Tangerine Layer 1, Fresh Lawn for Layer 2, and Kiwi for Layer 3.
To finish off each card, I added a sentiment from the Folk Animals Bundle. I stamped the sentiment in Onyx Pigment Ink and then used the coordinating die to cut it out. I used the die to cut three more pieces from scrap white cardstock and then I stacked and adhered the layers together, with the stamped sentiment on top, to create dimension. Finally, I glued the sentiments to the card fronts and glued the card fronts to top-folding card bases.

Thank you so much for visiting!
