This 1st card used one of my all time favorite PFS sets (Daisy Wreath) and it was foiled with turquoise foil and then stenciled with residual ink from my pink & turquoise brushes. I die cut it with the coordinating die and then attached (with foam) it to my background that was done with PFS's Stitches coverplate die.
You can see the turquoise foil a bit better in this close up. I finished with a small butterfly (SSS), a few PFS gems & a strip sentiment that I embossed using Gina K's All At Once Greetings.
My 2nd card uses PFS's Grow Wild stencil and once again I just used residual ink from my blending brushes, using more pressure for each graduated color. It was pretty as is, but I felt like the background was too bare, so I used SSS's Feather Spiral ef over the stenciled bouquet.
I matted my stenciled layer to a piece of Turquoise Sea cs (Gina K) and then adhered both to a white card base. I added my sentiment from PB's blooming barrel stamp set and then finished with 2 pink gems.
My last card uses PFS's Reason to Smile Wreath and die and mounted it with foam tape over a Dotted Postage Square die (PFS) that I ink blended with my turquoise blender brush. The stencil set also comes with many different sentiment options and I chose the "HELLO".
I did add glitter to the sentiment and also a bit to the edges of the butterfly (same as card #1 from SSS's Flourish Butterfly Trio. I attached both layers to a 5 x 5 inch square card base and added a few Cream Puff Embellishments from SSS. I had so much fun using these 3 older (and almost forgotten!!) sets and it was a good reminder to not always be looking for new, but to use what I do already have!
