My sweet friend Birgit gifted me a stencil/embossing folder combo for Christmas from Memory Box called Cheerful Floral and I came up with this...
In this close up you can see the embossing even more clearly. I added a layer of black behind my stenciled layer and then mounted both to a top folding white card base. I finished with a simple birthday sentiment (Gina K) and a few PFS Leaf Glimmer Drops. I love all the definition the embossing gives and the bright sunny colors on this card...this will definitely brighten up someone's birthday!
The DT has some beautifully stenciled cards to inspire you, and you can find them right HERE. This challenge is open till Wednesday, Jan. 28th @ 6:00PM.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

Wowza! Lots of beautiful color, lots of glorious dimension -- exquisite! This is superb, Marcia
This really is so Cheerful! LOVE the gorgeous colours you've used. The definition from the embossing adds to much depth to your image. What a wonderful way to bring sunshine into our day, Marcia! xx
Oh, my goodness gracious, this is totally amazing!!! The embossing is fabulous! I love how it's enhanced by a second embossing after coloring, and such detail in the stenciled coloring! You are a master stencil-er and a woman of great patience to accomplish this. Gorgeous!
Wow! What wonderful detail in this, Marcia! The stencil worked wonderfully to color all the different flowers! And the embossing is awesome! Such a pretty card, my friend!
We're in for a deeper sea of the white stuff so this came just when I needed it! What a beauty, Marcia! I have to remember the second embossing idea!
Beautiful card with all those lovely colors. Love the definition you got with the 2nd embossing after coloring. The black mat makes the cheerful blooms pop even more. Stay safe and warm my friend.
