Contemporary Christmas

Hello and Welcome

Meet today's card.

Pretty simple to create using the Three Rectangle Shadow Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs.

So here is what I did to create my card.

• I began with a piece of heavy white cardstock as my front card panel.  I laid the Three Rectangle Shadow stencil over the panel and fastened it with some low tack tape.
• Next, using an old credit card, I dragged different colours of acrylic paint over the stencil, depositing it onto my card panel.  The paint application was so thin that it didn't take long to dry at all.  (you may want to let yours dry a bit as not to get the colours all muddy when mixed together.
• Using the side edge of the credit card, I added some black paint markings to add interest.
• I removed the stencil and immediately washed it in some warm soapy water.
• While all my black lines dried, I die-cut the deer from Memory Box with some black paper twice and glued them together for stability.  
• I placed the panel into my Misti and stamped the sentiment with some black Versafine Clair and then clear heat embossed it.
• I glued the painted panel onto a heavy white card base and pop dotted the deer in the corner.

 Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
