Forever Chasing the Sun

Welcome

Today's card was a fun one, using the new stencil called Waterspout from A Colorful Life Designs and the sentiment from the new Chasing the Sun clear stamp set.

I used it as part of my 'collage' style card.

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

• I laid a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and then I tore a piece of scrap paper to use as my masks for the top and bottom of my cardstock.
• I positioned the Waterspout stencil along the middle of the masked area and inked that with some Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide ink.
• I turned the stencil upside down and inked the stencil again along the top edge with some Salty Ocean DOX ink.  I think the stencil gave a nice sense of movement to my background.
• Using some Broken China DOX ink, I inked up the background so the torn edge would become more visible.
• I did some stamping over the stenciled background to help provide more interest.
• Next, I removed the masking paper and placed the stenciled panel into my Misti and stamped the image of the biker and stamped the sentiment from the Chasing The Sun stamp set.
• I glued the finished panel onto a piece of navy cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.

Here is the stencil and stamp set I used:

Hello and Welcome.

Today, I'm sharing a card I had fun with.

I created it using my Brushos.  For those of you who don't know what Brushos are, they are highly pigmented powder that you activate with water.  You can watercolour with them or just sprinkle them onto your cardstock, spray with water and watch them come alive.

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

I laid my circle stencil down onto a piece of scrap paper, sprinkled some Brushos onto the back of it, sprayed with a good amount of waterc then pressed my paper into the wet inky stencil creating a monoprint.  When I lifted it, I was left with a fun pattern from the stencil.

After that dried, I stamped the biker then the sentiment and clear heat embossed them to help make them pop against the colourful background.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
