Hello and happy Saturday, friends! My calendar page is turned to July 1 and that means a new duo for Color Hues! Our dear Marcia has chosen Merlot and Navy for us to use, so pull out those supples and join us! My card features stencils with added stamping to give a vintage look.
The white card base was first inked in the dark blue and wine using DOX inks and the Bold Bouquet Stencil from Gina K. I lightly stamped with script randomly over the floral element.
I got a little crazy with the mixed media aspect of this card, adding splatters with the darker blue ink. Lastly, I used a Ranger Ink stencil called Dot Fade, dabbing on Glitz Glitter Gel (also Gina K) in random areas. It sure does shine and the texture is amazing.
Can you tell I had a blast making this card? I had no idea how it would turn out but I was really pleased with the result!

Yay, mixed media! It all looks so fabulous with your beautifully stenciled flowers, Cindy. I especially like that you added the stenciled glitter gel dots and the splatter. Love this!
This is really beautiful, Cindy! I do like this color combo Marcia has chosen, and you've done amazing things with it. The stencil is gorgeous and beautifully blended. The script adds a whole other look to it, and then you've topped it off with the glittery dots. Masterful!
