To You Both

Hello lovely crafters. Hope all is well with you.

For today's card I've used a sweet layering stencil set called Songbirds on Branches from Pinkfresh Studio. I thought it would make a nice card for a couple.



I initially stencilled on plain white but it looked a bit 'bland'. So I blended a couple of shades of yellow Oxides for the background and used more Oxides for stencilling the image. I only have the stencils in this set ( there are also matching stamp, dies and hot foil plates) so I pencilled in more detail.  I filled up the branches with punched flowers and added gems to their centres.  The eyelet arch die is from  Heartfelt Creations. The stamped sentiment is from a set I've had for years.
