Happy July 1st! Today I'm sharing an easy watercolored floral background featuring a new background from the MFT Stamps mid-month June Release! I played with the Karin Brushmarker Pro Markers for this pretty floral design. Simple heat embossing and a stamped die cut greeting (leftover from a previous project) were the perfect finishing touches! Let's get started!

Hello friends! The latest release from Simon Says Stamp, Crafty Hugs, is now available! I'm sharing two soft rainbow stenciled and background stamped backgrounds thank you cards featuring several new products from the new release. I am always needing thank you cards and the new Extra Large Thank You is incredible. The two new stencils from the release: Geo Leaves and Radiant Hearts are sure to be new favorites!
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
Watch the creation of these stamp and stencil layered backgrounds cards from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
Both cards feature a similar pastel rainbow stenciled technique but feature different background stencils. I love how you can achieve similar results with different products!
For my first card, I stenciled the Radiant Hearts Stencil on a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" smooth white panel with Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, and Cracked Pistachio. I removed the stencil (temporarily held in placed with Pixie Spray) and applied a light layer of ink over the stenciled designs with the same ink colors.
The Thank You Text was stamped over the stenciled background with white pigment ink.
The Extra Large Thank You Dies were die cut 3 times from smooth white cardstock and adhered one on top of another for a dimensional, bold greeting.
A sentiment from the US of Craf-ay Stamp Set was stamped on black cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. The phrase was die cut with a Nested Banners Die and adhered to the card with foam adhesive.
The design was finished with a scattering of Rainbow Sequins.
The second card features the Geo Leaves Stencil. The rest of the card was created exactly like the first design.

A greeting from the Simon Says Stamp Thanks and Encouragment Word Mix 1 Stamp Set was stamped on FSJ Black Licorice Cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. The greeting was added to the card with foam adhesive. I love how the bold black greeting is small enough to not take away from the awesome rainbow thank you background but makes a statement against the bright colors!
