Feeling Grinchy

Welcome

Here he is....he's back for the holidays.

Meet the wonderful newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

 Extra Grinchy

This stencil is just one for this Grinchy release, so if you love the Grinch, he's perfect for creating some fun cards for the holidays.

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I began with a piece of white cardstock to use for the Grinch's face.  I embossed it with a Burlap EB folder and then placed the Extra Grinchy stencil over the embossing and inked it up with some Black Soot Distress Oxide ink.
• I die cut the face with a circle die and then inked it with some Cracked Pistachio and some Rustic Wilderness DOX ink. 
• Using a yellow ink marker, I added the yellow to the Grinch's eyes and set aside to dry.
• Next, I inked up the sentiment on a piece of red cardstock with some Versamark ink and white heat embossed it.  
• I cut out the sentiment and splattered it with my white Posca pen but dragged my finger over the splatters to spread them and add to the 'grinchy' look.
• I die cut the card front panel with some red cardstock.  I glued that onto a piece of green cardstock and glued a few of the die cut pieces back into place.  I glued that onto an A2 sized white card base.
• I used some foam tape to pop the face and the sentiment over the die cut panel.

Here is the stencil I used:
