Anyhow, I cut the stencil out on my Silhouette, then added it to card, made a circle frame and added the dies. I dribbled some embossing powder onto the stenciled image and heat set for a little sparkle. If nothing else I'm learning.

Faith I think that you are too rough on yourself. It may not look like the person's you were trying to copy, but it's gorgeous. The delicate blue looks so elegant. Don't give up trying.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why you are so unhappy with your card Faith, it looks pretty to me - it's not the same as Karen's card but that doesn't matter, perhaps if you put a sentiment across the centre you will be happier with it.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card Faith and so pretty. Great idea to use the super talented Karen to emulate x. You have made your card your own x.
ReplyDeleteOh, how creative, my friend! I love the flower dies you chose and the circle for framing the stencil piece. Your choice of soft blue for pop of color is marvelous.
ReplyDeleteFaith!! Your card is gorgeous! Perhaps as I don't see the way you wanted it to look, I just see how beautiful it is. It definitely deserves to be on your blog! I love the softer tones with the stencilling and the die-cut flowers. It really is a gorgeous card! xox
