Life is Better

Great Weekend to make cards for contests.  Here's my card for this month's Gina K. Designs May Monthly Mix Challenge.  Cat at Gina K was timely in making this month's theme one of encouragement, "Lean On Me."  There is a little extra challenge to make a matching envelope.

I began by using GKD Sea Glass ink on the GKD Rounded Swirl stencil, which I also used to decorate my envelope.  Using that same ink as well as black, I flicked splatters on the stenciling. The sentiment, which is from the GKD Wreath builder set, is set off with black braiding cord.  I think the black helps pull it all together. 

Happy Stamping!
