This card came together really quick.

I used a variety of inks through the Wild Petals stencil on a panel of Not Your Mama's cardstock. Then, I applied Glitter Glaze in Fallen Snow through the stencil to give the background some sparkle. Next, I adhered the panel onto some medium pink layering cardstock and then onto the card base. I used a die cut sentiment which I cut from twice from white cardstock and once from purple cardstock. For a finishing touch a added a few pink gems.

Just For You Card with Brutus Monroe

 Hello Crafty Friends - I am  here with a fun Easter themed card featuring the Inspiration Box stamp set called Sophisticated Spring. 

Supplies Used:

This card came together rather quickly. 

I started by inking panels (4.25"x5.5") of 

Brutus Monroe: Not Your Mama's Cardstock with

inks. I did about a half of the panels in each color.

Next, I used the Brutus Monroe: Sophisticated Spring 6x8 Stamp Set

Brutus Monroe: Lovely Lilies 6x8 Stamp Set with

Brutus Monroe: Raven Detail Ink and stamped the Lilies, a few leaves and one Egg. I fussy cut them out.

Next, I trimmed a panel from one of the papers of Brutus Monroe: Sophisticated Spring 6x6 Paper Collection - for my background. I trimmed another piece of Brutus Monroe: Sophisticated Spring 6x6 Paper Collection (about 2-1/4")

along with a piece of pink cardstock(about 3/4"). I also cut some scallops from the 

Brutus Monroe: Not Your Mama's Cardstock and I trimmed a small 1" piece for the sentiment. 

 Then, I adhered them to my card base creating layers. I also adhered the white ribbon to the center of the pink cardstock. Next, I adhered the lilies and leaves directly to the card front above the pink pattern paper I did use a bit of thin foam adhesive for a few areas to create dimension . I used foam adhesive for the egg and centered it between the lilies. Next, I stamped the sentiment onto the cardstock piece, trimmed it into a fishtail banner and adhered it to the right hand bottom of the pink pattern paper. Now, for finishing touches I used the Brutus Monroe: Acrylic Bubbles: Blush
