Next is my entry for Uniko's 12 Days of Christmas Challenge. I used the branch from Season of Beauty with GKD Wreath Builder Template and tiny berries from Rustic Wreath.
The inks are Versafine Clair Green Oasis, Grass Green and Strawberry. The background was made with Heidi Swapp white Art Screen Ink through the Winter Foliage stencil. Love the beautiful shimmery texture which you can see in my IG video.
When I saw the colors for Altenew's July Inspiration Challenge are blue, green and beige, I decided to make an anniversary card for my sister and her hubby. She loves blue and he's fond of green.

I do love wreaths, including Altenew's Wonderful Wreath stencil. This time I did 4 layers for the top wreath and 2 for the bottom one. The Altenew inks are Lime, Limeade and Persian Blue, with Lime also being used for the splatters. The little flowers from Layered Floral Elements die set were brushed with the blue ink darkest in the centers. I added Stardust Stickles to the petal tips and the darkest Deep Sea Sapphire Gem Sparkles to the centers. You can see the sparkle in my IG video. The sentiments are from Flower Vine. Really love the look of the beige cardstock panel on the white card.
My final card is for the July Memory Box Challenge: Summer Vibes. I used MB Backyard Floral Stems for the focal point along with Friends and Family stamp set for the sentiment. The vellum butterfly is the smallest one in Birch Press Simple Butterfly Contour Layers. I purposely used one of my white cardstocks that give this somewhat textured look when brushed with any inks. Here I used Distress Oxide Prize Ribbon with the MFT rectangle stencil to represent a summer sky. Fun to use Altenew Tropical Fiesta Watercolor Brush Markers to color the focal point. I used 2 greens, red, purple, yellow and orange--summery colors to me. The sentiment was stamped in Versafine Clair Blue Belle. I added little blue gems and tiny white pearls. I'm entering Word Art Wednesday and TTTC274 as my card fits several rows, including Die Cut/Free/Butterfly.
Greta, all are lovely cards, but the one that you entered over at Word Art Wednesday is certainly stunning. I love how you did the background. The color is so perfect and cheery for summer. And the flowers really pop. Thanks so much for playing along with us this round. We appreciate seeing what you're up to! :)
