Decorate the Tree

Welcome
Meet today's card using the newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called
Great stencil with a total of 5 unique ornament designs.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I got out a piece of white cardstock and placed the Watercolor Ornaments stencil over that.  I decided that 3 of the ornaments would fit best across my card front panel so after I chose the 3 I wanted, I inked them up with some Lumberjack Plaid, Rustic Wilderness and some Broken China Distress Oxide ink.
  • I splattered the ornaments with my white Posca pen and when they were all dry, I fussy cut them out and set them aside.
  • I used the Season's Greetings Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of white cardstock, then glued that onto a piece of red cardstock and then onto a white A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to add the ornaments over the embossed background and cut some thin strips of black paper to add to the top of the ornaments.
  • I die cut the sentiment and used some more foam tape to add it over the bottom.
  • Finally, I added some red bling around the ornaments.

Here is the stencil I used:

  2. Love this card. The colors are so cheerful and the textured background is great. I also like how you used paper to create the lines for the ornaments. Very clever.
