Welcome
Meet today's card.
A simple one using the newly released Candy Stripes stencil from A Colorful Life Designs.
So, here's what I did to create my card.
- I cut a piece of white cardstock and placed it onto my Make Art Station.
- I positioned the Candy Stripes stencil over my cardstock and inked it up with some Barn Door Distress Oxide ink.
- I lifted the stencil off and repositioned it going in the other direction so the stripes would intersect each other. I inked that with some Lumberjack Plaid DOX ink.
- I removed the stencil and splattered with my white Posca pen.
- When it was all dry, I die cut the circle directly from one side of the stenciled background. I cut a white circle from another piece of cardstock and glued the 2 together.
- I placed the die cut circle into my Misti to stamp the sentiment and I clear heat embossed it to help it pop.
- I glued the stiped panel onto a piece of red cardstock and then onto a white A2 sized card base.
- I used some foam tape to pop the circle back into place, matching up the stripes.
- Lastly, I added 3 black gems just under the sentiment.
