It was about time that I used another of my goodies from my Advent calendar. This time it is a stencil from Diamond Press. I cut my background piece of pattern paper and I used the stencil on the top and then flipped the paper and did it on the bottom also to frame the sentiment. I felt it needed a little something more and found these flowers I had bought years ago that went with it perfectly!

Very pretty stenciled card. Love that you did it on the pattern paper and added the cute pink flowers. Thanks for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday.
Oh, Connie! This is LOVELY! Definitely says IT'S SPRINGTIME! Pretty paper, made even prettier with your stenciling. Connie, it's always a joy using my "old" flowers. Unfortunately, I went a little crazy back when postage was calculated by weight instead of dimension. LOTS and LOTS of flowers were pre-made by happy little fingers, and I also purchased a lot of them, as well. These delicate pink flowers also show that strength is found after the coldest of winters, and the Hope of Spring graces us all. I hate hearing about your magnolias. Ours began blooming about a month ago. The air is fragrant with them. Hoping the drought won't cause them to drop petals too soon. They usually bloom for a few months at least. The bees, wasps and other pollinators enjoy them. No matter how diligently I tried, I was never able to take a photo of the inside of a blossom without finding the treasures of pollinators on the interior LOL Most of our magnolias are two southern varieties, but we do have one which is from mideastern states, and blooms pink. Hoping all is well with you. Please know I think of you and Greg often, and carry you in my heart. huggers, de
So very pretty Connie, love the stenciled leaves and then to fine the perfect flowers, just gorgeous.

Connie, this is so soft and pretty. I love the stenciling over striped paper. Good for you using those Advent calendar items!
Gorgeous card! I love how you’ve stencilled on the background paper, it adds so much interest. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize The Birthday.
Your stenciling on the patterned paper creates such a soft and pretty frame for the sentiment, and the way you flipped the design to balance the top and bottom gives the whole card a polished look, while those layered flowers from your stash add the perfect touch of dimension and tie the pink tones together beautifully.
I love how you stenciled the design on patterned paper and those pretty flowers are the perfect finishing touch.
Pink is my favourite colour ... this is a great looking card, very pretty..
All the best Jan
