Live This Life Retro Card

I decided to use one of my new stamp sets from the Gray Day sale and came up with this cheerful card on New Year's Day.
Stamp the Flower Power Retro Montage stamp onto a piece of Clarity stencil card in Vibrant Fuchsia Archival ink.
Add Live This Life from Quotes set 3 into the largest area in Paradise Teal Archival ink.
Add one of the small solid flowers into one of the smaller areas in the same ink.
Add Peace and Love from the Hippie Chicks stamp set into another aperture in Monarch Orange Archival ink.
Add colour to the frames using a deep orange Ecoline watercolour pen.
Add further colour using a cobalt turquoise Pitt artist pen (Faber-Castell #153).
Add further flowers from the stamp set in Monarch Orange Archival ink.
Add further stamping in Paradise Teal Archival ink.
Die cut the topper using the second largest nested square film strip doodle frame-its frames & panels die and a mat from Antarctica companion paper using the largest die in the same set.
Die cut a further mat from Indian Summer companion paper using the largest nested square picot die and mat up the topper.
To finish, add to the front of a 7” x 7” white card blank.
