I say a U-tube video by Ryan Swift from Glitter Grunge and I was so impressed
I had to take a try at his technique. Above are the two cards I made. Normally
I would just leave white space around a flower like below. Above you use
a blender blush or tool of you choice to blend and then take a stencil to
random areas of your card. I like how it turned out. Instead of adding a
sentiment I just tucked a piece of the copper shinny paper I used as a layer
inside for when I am ready to use the card.
Have a wonderful weekend, I'm glad you stopped by.
A few fun challenges:

Fabulous cards Donna. I like the 2nd one best with the white around the image..Loz
Really gorgeous colors and designs Donna.

Two gorgeous grungy flower cards but like Loz, I am prone to the bit of white but both are gorgeous. xx
They're both pretty versions of that gorgeous flower! I love the differently colored centers as well as the random stenciling, so I'd have a difficult time choosing a favorite. That copper mat adds such a touch of elegance too!
Both are gorgeous Donna and I love that large colorful flower! I need to check out that video, enjoy your weekend!
Oh love both of them and I like the first one best. I think because you used a stencil to add some texture. Now you have inspired me to make one. Awesome job dear friend.
What a difference the stencil makes, Donna! I’m gonna remember this technique because I frequently distress die cut edges but don’t think to make visual interest with a stencil. Thank you for sharing your beautiful card!
Great card and technique! I love the colors you chose, and you make it sound so easy. I may have to try that.
This is wonderful - nice stencil. I really like the shine of the glitter on this. Checking out the video!

Fabulous card. Leaving the card free of a sentiment allowed that gorgeous flower to pop. Thanks for joining us at The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog.
