Welcome
Fall is such a wonderful time of year.
This newly released stencil called Big Oak from A Colorful Life Designs was a fun one to use.
So, here's what I did to create my card.
- I began with a piece of white cardstock and got out my Gel Plate, brayer and inks.
- I rubbed some Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge and some Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide ink directly onto my Gel Plate, then brayered the colours together.
- I laid the Big Oak stencil onto the plate and rubbed over it with my white cardstock to get the print.
- Next, I splattered with my black Posca pen to add interest.
- I placed the dried panel into my Misti to stamp the fall sentiment.
- I glued it onto a piece of orange cardstock, then onto a piece of yellow and finally onto an A2 size card base.
- I added 3 black gems to finish off my card.
