Good Times

 

Good Morning

A new month means a whole new release of stencils at A Colorful Life Designs.  
Lots of summer inspired designs for creating beach/ocean designs as well as many more.
Meet one of the new stencils for July called:

So here are my card details.
  • I placed a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station first.  I started inking the Maelstrom stencil with some Peacock Feathers, then some Salty Ocean and then some Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide inks.
  • The middle area of this stencil reminded me of a beach ball, so after it was all inked up, I used a circle die to cut out just that area.
  • I took the circle and stamped the sentiment onto it in my Misti.  I clear heat embossed it to help make it pop, then splattered with my black Posca pen.
  • I stamped another sentiment onto my card front and clear heat embossed that too.
  • I glue the panel onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto a piece of navy cardstock and then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to pop the circle die cut back into place, rotating it.
  • I finished my card off by adding 3 black gems under the bottom sentiment.

Here is the new stencil:

The stencil looks great Karen and the Prize Ribbon and Salty Ocean inks look wonderful together and the sentiment stands out beautifully stamped in black and heat embossed and the black gems and spattering finish it perfectly. The central area does have the look of a beach ball. x
