Coverplate and a Stenciled Daisy

Welcome

Today's card is one for our local swap group, where the challenge is to use a stencil.


I was having difficulty photographing this, which was not helped by the fact that I had written in the card and addressed the envelope before I took the shots!


The idea came from a you tube video, that I now cannot locate - if anyone can tell me who presents it, or can link me back to it, it would be appreciated.


The technique is to take a diecut background - here I used a Paper Rose die, Mandeleine,
and stencil over it, using a fairly 'open' stencil - stencil used was bunch of Daisies by Oakwood


The greeting was die cut from card I had coloured using the same inks as I had used on the flower.
The die was a Sizzex alphabet by Lisa Horton.


I used just the head of the flower on the corner of the inner corner of the card liner, as also on n the envelope.
