Today I’m sharing a cheerful handmade card that celebrates gratitude and fresh floral vibes!
This card features a bold all-over background of vibrant blue Hydrangea flowers and bright green leaves, stenciled to create a lively, design. The focal sentiment, “GRATEFUL FOR YOU,” the sentiment in white on a crisp black strip, making it pop against the floral background.
I used layered stencils and dye inks to create depth and variation in the blooms. Everything is mounted on a stitched panel with a clean black mat for contrast and adhered to a Neenah Solar White card base.
This card is perfect for expressing heartfelt thanks—to a friend, a family member, or anyone who’s made a difference in your life. 💙
