I started by stenciling with SU!'s Mint Macaron and Gina K's light, medium & dark Lilac inks and then used Memory Box's Pinpoint Leaf Plate over the top of the stenciled design.
I mounted my stenciled layer to a piece of Mint Macaron cs and then a top folding white card base, and then finished with a sentiment strip that I hot foiled with silver using Spellbinder's Everyday Sentiments II plates and a few PFS gems. These colors are definitely making me wish Spring would hurry up and get here!!

This is just fabulous, Marcia! That background was such a fabulous idea! I am off to have a look at those stencils. Wonderful job with the colors! Have a great weekend!
Beautiful! I never would've thought to use a coverplate die over your pretty flowers, but it is truly amazing, Marcia
Marcia, your flowers are so pretty in these soft colors! It's a gorgeous stenciled creation, shaded to perfection and I love it topped off with the stitched cover plate!
The texture plate really makes the stencilled flowers the center of attention Marcia. Hopefully spring is on the way! :)
Such beautiful stenciled flowers, Marcia! I love that pin point texture over the whole thing! Gorgeous, my friend and thank you for the warm welcome!
That stencil was meant for those colors, Marcia. I would have been afraid to add the coverplate but it worked out beautifully on your card.
BEAUTIFUL color combo for this gorgeous card, Marcia! Love this Flower stencil and that cover-plate is perfect too!
Beautiful, its amazing how just a sliver of colored cardstock adds a nice touch.
Marcia, I love the wispy nature of the stenciled florals and the ink colors were so perfect for this challenge! What a great idea to use that cover die, it adds so much texture and interest to the card! Gorgeous card, my friend!
Another beauty, Marcia! Your technique of using the cover die over the floral panel is brilliant! I especially love the inks you chose for the colors. I love your design artistry!
This is stunning!!!! Now I want to stencil and emboss something. LOL! This combo really gives such a beautiful artsy look.
