Stenciled Gladiolus

Hi everyone.  Made a quick and easy CAS card for a couple of challenges. :)

Started with one of my favourite stamp sets from Altenew - Nature's Magic.  Stamped and die-cut the gladiolus and used the matching stencil and some detail brushes to sponge colour.

Used a rectangle die (center of a frame I had cut for another project), stenciling over top with Wander and Find (Carta Bella) in Shabby Shutters distress ink.  I finished by stamping a small sentiment in black ink.

Popped up the panel, added the gladiolus on top (popping up the top few flowers), adding it onto my white card base.  Added a few small details with my white acrylic paint pen to finish.

Just perfect. I love the pink flowers over the green stencilling and the cute little sentiment xx
