Rainbow Love


Welcome
Who doesn't love seeing a rainbow?
This fun new Layered Rainbow Love Stencil is just so fun to create with.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I began by placing a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art station.  I then placed #1 Rainbow Love stencil onto my cardstock and inked it up with some Shaded Lilac, Cracked Pistachio and some Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide ink.
  • I removed that stencil and positioned #2 stencil in place and inked that up with some Mustard Seed, Picked Raspberry and some Broken China DOX ink. 
  • I removed that stencil and laid down stencil #3 (the hearts) and inked them up with some Picked Raspberry DOX ink.
  • I placed the inked panel into my Misti and stamped the sentiment.  
  • I glued it to a piece of matching blue cardstock and then onto an A2 card base.
  • To help finish it all off, I added 3 black gems around the sentiment.

Here is the 3 part stencil I used:

Oodles

 

Good Morning
Today's card was a simple one to create using 2 new stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called Boho Heart and Heart Surround.  
If you scroll down and look at the last card I posted before this one, you can see how you can get a totally different look using the same stencils but reversing the way you layer them.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I laid a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art station and positioned the BoHo Heart stencil over to the side.  I inked it up with some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink.
  • Keeping that stencil in place over my cardstock, I positioned the Heart Surround stencil right over the top of the first one and inked again using some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink.  Layering them up gave a totally different look to the heart.
  • I removed both stencils and splattered with my white Posca pen.
  • When the piece was dry, I placed it into my Misti and stamped the sentiment from the new stamp set called Oodles also from A Colorful Life Designs. 
  • I glued the finished panel onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base. 
  • To finish off my card I added 3 black gems around the sentiment.

So Much


Welcome to a new year and a new release at A Colorful Life Designs.
This release is pretty exciting as it not only has some 21 newly designed stencils but also a stamp set!

Today, I am playing with the new Heart Surround, the new Boho Heart stencil and the new stamp set called Oodles.

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 placed the Heart Surround stencil just slightly off to one side and inked it up with some Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide ink.
  • Keeping the stencil in place, I positioned the BoHo Heart stencil right over the top of it, matching up the outline of the heart shape.  I then inked it up with some Blueprint Sketch DOX ink. It gave such a wonderful design by layering the stencils together.
  • Next, I placed the inked panel into my Misti and stamped the sentiment from the new Oodles Stamp set.
  • I added 3 black gems just under the sentiment and glued the panel onto a piece of purple cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
