Petals

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I've had these Petal Perfection stencils and dies for a year now.  I used them once

for this card and always intended to play with them some more.

I really like how the stenciling goes to the edge of the dies!

I'm trying to work on my stenciling techniques.  I fear I still have a way to go, but

Michele's tip on using the Misti is a big help.  Now to get control of the coloring!

I used mixed media paper for these flowers and stenciled a set in yellow and one 

in pink.  I used mixed media paper just in case the coloring didn't turn out so well.

Sometimes a damp brush works good to smooth the color.

I put a few of the flowers in a vase and mounted the bouquet on a piece of

embossed vellum that had been in the drawer waiting for just the right card.
