I thought it would be fun to do some color blocks on my card, so I started by creating stencils. I used Spellbinders® Curved Matting Basics B to cut openings in the centers of three pieces of scratch paper. I use the three smallest die template.
Then I used repositionable tape to adhere the largest stencil to my Pure Luxury White (5 X 5 inch) card base. With the stencil in place, I then sponged Gina K Sweet Mango ink.
I removed the first stencil, then positioned the second largest stencil. I sponged Gina K Bubblegum Pink ink in that opening.
Next, I switched to the smallest stencil and sponged Gina K Sweet Corn ink.
I stamped the flower image, from the Journey of the Heart using, Gina K Black ink.
Then I stamped the branch with Gina K Grass Green ink, but I first stamped off on scratch paper to make the image lighter.
Next I stamped the sentiment using Gina K Black ink.
It's a little hard to see in the photo, but I also added some decorative scoring in the corners using my Scor-Buddy.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day!.

A beautiful layout/card! I appreciate the tutorial which simplifies the technique so I believe I could do that - the trick would be using colors that blend well. TFS
At first I thought you used the shadow stamps from back in the day...showing my age and how long I have been stamping. Beautiful cards and technique.
Wonderful job Theresa!!! Great step by step tutorial too!
Hi Theresa! What a lovely creation! Great idea to use the dies to stencil inside of -- look how simple but BRILLIANT this turned out :D :D :D Very best to you -- ♥
Very beautiful!
Love the color blocking Theresa! I have shadow stamps from days gone by. I'll have to dig them out & start using them again!
I love your card and appreciate the instructions (verbal and visual) for the color blocking. I didn't know how to do that and will start practicing it tomorrow!
Fantastic! Such pretty colors, such a clever design. Thanks so much for ALWAYS giving away your secrets! ;)
Very pretty watercolor look!!!!
