Welcome
I had a 'play' last week with some stamps and a stencil from Uniko - kindly provided by Bev as a prize last year... then I loved the releases so much I bought the stencil...
The stencil is the Mod Background Builder, and the stamps are from the Mid Century Modern Frames set

It is quite a simple card, and inspired by how Bev, the owner of Uniko used the stencil recently here for a masculine card, which is what I needed to make...

First I sorted out the general plan for my card, then stamped the sentiment panel using Versafine Clair Pinecone ink, clear embossed it, then masked it

I chose to use three inks on my stencil for an ombre effect.
Memento Cottage Ivy, Bamboos leaves and New Sprout

The dots are simply punch outs from a deep green card.
The card base is kraft card, and the edges of the feature panel were inked in the Bamboo Leaves ink

I repeated the dots on the liner of the card, and the stencilling on the envelope.

That stencil has a lovely retro feel to it and the sentiment shape compliments well, many thanks for sharing at Allsorts and following the masculine option.
