For the Guys

 

Welcome
Today's card is featuring a fun new stencil for June from A Colorful Life Designs called:
Great stencil for making more masculine looking cards. I used it with an older release called:

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I began with a piece of white cardstock on my Make Art Station.  I placed the Square Cutout stencil down and inked over that with some Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink.
  • Leaving that stencil in place, I put the Gears stencil right over the top and inked it up again with some Dusty Concord DOX ink.
  • Next, I splattered the panel with my white Posca pen and set aside to dry.
  • I cut out the 'hello' sentiment 5 times from white cardstock and glued them together to create a stacked look.
  • I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of purple cardstock and then onto a white A2  sized card base.
  • I cut 2 squares using a stitched square die and glued them into the middle area, added my sentiment last, over that.

Here are the stencils I used:

  1. This is a great masculine card with the Gears and Square Cutout stencils paired together and the blue tones look terrific together, and finished with a lovely white die cut 'Hello' over the two coordinating blue squares, and some white spatters too...a super card Karen. x
