Ingredients:

Neenah Classic Crest Cover 100lb, Solar White/White or cardstock of choice

Grey cardstock, 80-100 lbs

Pattern paper of choice

Altenew Simple Frame Mask Stencil

Altenew Serene Blooms Stamp, Stencil & Die Set

Oak Moss, and Jet Black

Altenew Embossing Ink

Altenew Antique Gold Pigment Ink

Altenew Clear and Antique Gold Embossing Powders

Foam Tape

Instructions:

From Grey cardstock, create a 6 ¼” x 4 ½” card base. From white cardstock, cut a 4 ¼” x 5 ½”

panel.

Stencil the Simple Frame Mask in the center of the white card panel using Antique Gold Pigment Ink, set aside

to dry.

On a separate sheet of white cardstock, emboss the large floral from the Serene Blooms Stamp set with clear

embossing powder. Once cooled, use the layering stencil to color the large florals and leaves. Use Sunkissed,

Orange Cream, Autumn Blaze and Firebrick for the florals, transitioning from darkest at the base to lightest at

the end of the petals. Follow the same color blending/transitioning for the leaves using Mossy Meadow, Green

Opal and Oak Moss. Die cut the floral.

Die cut the water pitcher from Serene Blooms from patterned cardstock. Ink the entire pitcher with embossing

ink and emboss with clear and Antique Gold Embossing Powders-for a subtle glitter effect, I mixed roughly a

teaspoon of clear powder, sprinkled in the Antique Gold and mixed the two. Repeat the embossing process

two to three times.

Adhere the stenciled panel onto the grey card base, leaving a strip of grey cardstock open at the bottom for the

sentiment. With Jet Black ink, stamp the sentiment at the center of the grey strip. Arrange the die cut flowers

and pitcher onto the white card panel, mostly within the stenciled frame, allowing some portion of the pitcher,

flowers and leaves to go outside of the framed area. Adhere the floral die cut directly onto the panel. Adhere

the pitcher using foam tape.
