Step-by-Step Tutorial

1. Create the Background

The background of this card is made super vibrant with a panel from the Full of Life DSP. The bold, radiant lines bring instant energy and dimension to the card without any extra effort. Simply trim to size and adhere to a white card base.

2. Stencil the Floral Image

Next, grab your Thankful Garden stencil set and stamp the floral image in a light waterproof ink. Using blending brushes, add color through the coordinating layering stencils. This makes coloring the image fun and foolproof. I used cheerful yellows for the flowers and fresh greens for the leaves.

Tip: Use a light touch when blending for a soft gradient, or layer more ink for extra vibrancy.

3. Die Cut & Frame It

Once your floral image is coloured, cut it out using the coordinating dies. I layered the flowers on a textured frame die-cut from white cardstock to give the design some depth and structure.

4. Add the Sentiment

The sentiment “It’s Your Birthday” is from the Saying Something Ephemera Pack—already pre-cut and ready to go! I popped it up on foam tape for dimension.

5. Finishing Touches

To finish the card, I added a few sparkly embellishments for a little extra birthday shine.

Measurements

  • Thick White Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Full of Life designer series paper (DSP) – 14.35cm X 10cm.

Ink Blending Tips for a Seamless Background

I used ink blending for this card to create a soft, seamless background. Here’s my top tip:
Take your time and use a light hand. It’s easier to build up the colour gradually than to remove it if it gets too dark.

I typically use small blending brushes for precision, but any size works—just layer the colour until you achieve the look you want.

I love layering stencils. They are so easy to use. I’ve shown how to use them many times in videos, however, I still get new people unsure of how to use them. Therefore I decided to do a new tutorial on how to use these wonderful products.

Stampin’ Up!’s layering stencils are numbered making it easy to know what order to use them. Another tip is to always start with your lightest colour and increase the colour intensity. Stick to colours that are next to each other in the colour wheel. Have you seen the fabulous colour wheel from Stampin’ Up!? Check it out here. It is great for choosing the colours for a card or scrapbook page.

I love stamp sets that have matching dies and stencils. They make creating beautiful cards a breeze. As a mixed media artist, I do love all the finishing details and one of them is using a white pen. I’ve used it here to highlight the flower centres and petals. The images pop. Do you agree?

My tip is to ensure your ink is totally dry, not just touch dry. Your pen will work much better. I gave the image a blast from my heat tool to ensure it was dry.

I have these lovely floral cards to share today. Both of these use Layers of Beauty stencils without the stamp set. This bundle is so versatile and all the results are amazing.

The version above uses Poppy Parade, Real Red and Cherry Cobbler. I have a lovely red rose outside my front door, which inspired this card. My neighbours have a yellow rose and this inspired the card below. Which one do you prefer? Let me know in the comments.

This card was made using the emboss resist technique. I heat-embossed a piece of white cardstock with clear embossing powder. Then, a layer of ink was applied over the top using blending brushes. The embossed areas will resist the ink leaving this lovely effect.

I have made this card in two different colour ways. The above is Coastal Cabana, Pool Pary and Lost Lagoon, below is Berry Burst and Bubble Bath. Which version do you prefer? Let me know in the comments below.

I love how this card turned out. The flowers are so bright and pretty. I wanted my card to be a festive one so I limited my colour palette to the reds, greens and yellows. I was thinking of poinsettias. The flower is meant to be a sunflower I think. I have used it this way in a previous card. However, depending on how you colour it, it can be whatever you want it to be.

The Abundant Beauty stencil is a layering stencil but I did extra shading with both my blending brushes and sponge daubers. There are only 3 leaves on the stencil. I kept moving the stencil around to add more leaves and fill in the gaps in the design.
