I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a bit of creative therapy.
Sometimes there’s nothing quite so good for the soul as getting inky with some pretty colours and a great layering stencil set.
I’m also still working on building my stash of Thank You cards back up again, so this was a lovely and relaxing way to do that.

The wonderful Mushroom Meadow stencil set from The Greetery originally came out as an autumn release. But I absolutely love it in traditionally spring and summer shades.
It definitely gives me those whimsical vibes of Cath Kidston colour palettes and illustrations. And so, I had a little root around in my ink drawer and pulled out 6 shades of ink that I thought would work nicely on a pale pink background.
I’m very happy with how the panel turned out, and didn’t want to cover it up too much when it came to turning it into a card.
So the sentiment called for a “less is more” approach.
I turned to the trusty Opposites Attract stamp and die set, and the coordinating die set for the scripty sentiments.
Instead of stamping in black on white, I went with navy and cornflower blue tones on ivory card to soften the look.
But before sticking anything down, I cut the panel with the A2 Stitched Scallops dies to create a little contrast against my white card base.
And there we go, card done.
Until next time, happy crafting!
