Welcome
Today's card is filled with a bit of whimsy as I am using the newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:
So, here's what I did to create my fun card.
- I began by cutting a piece of white cardstock and dry embossed it with a circle Embossing Folder.
- I placed the Zig Zag Squares stencil over my embossed cardstock and inked with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide at the top. Next, I added some Salty Ocean along the middle and then some Blueprint Sketch DOX inks along the bottom. Stenciling over an embossed piece of cardstock, adds another level of interest to any background.
- Next, I die cut the sentiment with some dark blue cardstock and the sentiment shadow right from my card front.
- I wanted to add a bit more interest to the sentiment, so I added some dots with my white Posca pen. It brightened the whole thing up.
- I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of white cardstock, then some navy and then onto a 4 1/4inch square card base.
- I glued the sentiment onto the shadow and popped it back into place over the card front with some foam tape.
- The final step was to add some silver gems to the sentiment.
Here is the stencil I used:
