Hello and Welcome
Just a fun little card featuring this fun stencil called Starry Grid from A Colorful Life Designs and these cute little fairies from Lavinia Stamps.
Here's what I did to create my card.
A few weeks ago, I got out my Gelli Plate and brayered on some different colours of acrylic paint. Next, I splattered on some water and some white acrylic paint to give it some interest. I loved how it looked like a starry night.
I placed the piece into my Misti and stamped the fairies a few times with some black Memento ink. I did fill in some of the areas using a permanent black marker to get a dark, filled in image.
I then die-cut it into a circle.
Next, I took a piece of heavy white cardstock and placed my stencil over that. I sponged on some Tumbled Glass DOX ink, using a light hand in some areas and heavier in others to give the background some interest. Leaving the stencil in place, I splattered with some water to lift some of the inks and tie the bkg into the look of the white splatters on the circle die cut.
I stamped the sentiment and mounted the fairies over the starry bkg with pop dots.
Before I go, I have a favour to ask.
