For the background, I used the Scrapbook.com Diamond Stitched Stencil and inked it with Catherine Pooler Minted ink, creating a soft design. Once the stencil was complete, I stamped a flower inside each of the boxes using Catherine Pooler Cotton Candy ink. The flower is from the Scrapbook.com Blooming Sentiment stamp. This combination creates a stunning, vibrant background that adds a beautiful touch to the card.

To finish the card, I added the Scrapbook.com “You Were Made to Bloom” word die to the front. I love the bold size of this die, and it really stands out. For the sentiment, I used Scrapbook.com Pastel Glossy cardstock, which gives it a beautiful glossy finish. After attaching the sentiment to the card front, I mounted the layer onto a card base. To add some dimension and a fun color pop, I used Scrapbook.com Pops of Color in Sunshine to the center of the flowers, completing the look with a touch of shine.

I hope this card inspires you to get creative with your stencils, stamps, and dies! It’s a fun way to combine different elements and techniques to make a beautiful design.
