Ball Jumble


Welcome
This new Ball Jumble stencil from A Colorful Life Designs is super fun!

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • For my card, I wanted to use the Ball Jumble stencil and create a resist using it, so I laid the stencil down, spread some Vicki Boutin Gel Medium over the entire stencil using a palette knife.
  • After the stencil was covered with the medium, I flipped it over and pressed it onto a piece of white cardstock.  I removed the stencil and set it aside to dry completely before moving onto the inking.  
  • When the panel was dry, I started inking up it from the top to the bottom with these colours:  Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink.  I thought the medium would totally resist the ink but instead, it covered it and gave it a different shade of the ink.
  • I splattered with my white Posca pen and set aside to dry.
  • I stamped the sentiment with some Versamark ink and white heat embossed it onto a piece of pink cardstock and die cut it out.
  • I glued the inked panel onto a piece of pink cardstock and then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment over the background.

Here is the stencil I used:

A happy accident that the medium took the ink, Karen, as it has given a wonderful result with the subtle colour differences
