Bold Birthday


Good Morning
Here's another card I made using some of the patterned paper I have in my stash.
I used the Blowout stencil from A Colorful Life Designs.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I began by looking through my stash of patterned papers until I found this fun striped one.
  • I cut a piece for my card front, set it onto my Make Art Station and positioned the Blowout stencil over that.
  • I inked up the stencil with some Lumberjack Plaid Distress Oxide ink, then splattered with my white Posca pen.  The red worked very well with the stripes.
  • While that dried, I stamped out the sentiment with some more DOX ink and then die cut it out.
  • I glued the finished panel onto a piece of red cardstock, then onto a whiter A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment up and put 3 red gems around it.

Here is the stencil I used:

Many thanks for stopping by and taking a look.

  1. The Blowout stencilling looks great over the pretty striped paper Karen, and that bright red certainly packs a punch, and finish perfectly with the matching sentiment and white spattering. x
