Big hugs

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share using a stencil and some ink blending.



I started by creating my background using a stencil from Neat and Tangled. I masked off a section at a time of the stencil and ink blended the colour using 4 different colours of Distress inks.

I die cut the panel using a large stitched rectangle die from Simon Says Stamp.

I layered the panel onto a piece of black cardstock slightly bigger than my finished panel.

The sentiment was die cut from both white and black cardstock pieces.

For the final touch I added a rhinestone gem in the centre of each square.

Well that's it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.

Supplies:

Neat & Tangled Geometric Circles stencil
Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangle die set
Birch Press Design Big Hugs Sugar Script die set
Distress Oxide inks - Tumbled Glass, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Blueprint Sketch
Hai Rainbow Rhinestones
Taylored Expressions ink blending brushes

Neon Hello

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share that I will be entering into Simon Says Stamp current "Anything Goes" theme on Flickr. You can find it here 



I started by colour blending 3 different colours of Hero Arts Neon ink cubes.

It is a bit tricky to blend over this stencil because the lines are very thin but I think it all worked out.

Once I was finished with the blending I die cut the hello 3 times with black cardstock. I applied watermark ink to the top layer of the sentiment and added some clear embossing powder so I could have a shiny look to my sentiment.

I added some splatters with black paint and then added the Hello to the centre of my panel.

Onto the card base I added 2 strips of neon washi tape at the top and bottom and then adhered my panel to the card.

Well that's it for my card which was quite simple to make.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Supplies:

Simon Says Stamp Flora stencil
Simon Says Stamp Painted Hello die
Hero Arts Neon Green, Neon Pink and Neon Orange ink cubes
Gansai Tambi black paint
Washi tape
