I am so excited for today's Oh So Inspired Collaboration hop and creating alongside so many talented makers. Our inspiration this month comes from a beautiful card by MarDi that features stenciled panels, leafy details, and a grounded sentiment, and I leaned into that layered botanical feel for my own design. For this card, I am using new Sizzix products created in collaboration with Vicki Boutin, including the Buildable Botanicals stencils, Greenery Layers stamps and dies, Double Edgers Thinlits, and the Vicki Script Thinlits. I started by stenciling two backgrounds on white cardstock, one with layered greens for a leafy pattern and one with pinks for a floral design, adding touches of Lunar Paste through the stencils for subtle shine and texture.

Once the stenciled panels were dry, I trimmed them into narrow rectangles to create a row of small panels across the card front. I added a torn edge detail using one of the Double Edgers dies with a light gray cardstock panel to give the design some separation from the white card base. I stamped and die cut leafy elements and a butterfly from the Greenery Layers set using muted cardstock colors, then arranged them across the panels with liquid adhesive and foam adhesive for dimension. To finish the card, I die cut the word hello from the Vicki Script Thinlits, layered it for thickness, and placed it so it overlapped both the panel and the card base. A few glitter Pops of Color added the final touch of shine, and the full process can be seen in the video below as part of the hop.
