Star Points


Welcome
Meet today's card using one of the new May released stencils called Star Points from A Colorful Life Designs.
I created an overall pattern by doing some stencil shifting.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Star Points stencil over a piece of white cardstock on my Make Art Station and then inked it up with some Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink.
  • I cleaned off the stencil and moved it over to an open area and inked again with some Mustard Seed DOX ink.  
  • I repeated the above process again and inked lastly with some Ripe Persimmon DOX ink.
  • To help fill the panel and make the pattern look a bit more cohesive, I used an eraser on the end of a pencil, to fill in the open areas using the same colours I used on the stars.  
  • I took the panel and cut out a star from the center.
  • I cut another star from some white cardstock, placed it into my Misti and stamped the sentiment.
  • I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of orange cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • I popped the star back into place, matching up the patterns with some foam tape.
  • Finally, I glued the smaller white star on top of the larger one.

Here is the stencil I used:

Some fabulous citrus tones for the stars, and the added spots using the eraser on the end of a pencil look great Karen...so vibrant and pretty! x
