Welcome
Today's card features a new for May stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called Meteorites.
Just a fun little stencil to play with that I used to create a border.
So, here's what I did to create my card.
- I cut a piece of white cardstock for my front panel. I laid that onto my Make Art Station and positioned the Meteorites stencil over the first edge. It is a smaller size stencil so easy to move around without having to mask. I inked that up with some Mustard Seed Distress Oxide ink.
- I moved the stencil around to another side of my card front panel and inked with more of the Mustard Seed until all the edges were inked.
- I cleaned my stencil off and repeated that whole process again using some Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide ink.
- Lastly, I went all around the edges with some Picked Raspberry DOX ink to finish it off.
- I die cut the white frame, placed it into my Misti and stamped the sentiment onto the center area. It was the perfect fit.
- I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of orange cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card panel.
- I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment right into the center of the panel.
Here is the stencil I used:
