Hugs are the Best!

 Hi everyone,

Today I have a fun slimline card to share that I created using a stencil and a bunch of Distress inks.

I first die cut a white panel using a slimline stitched die. I didn’t have a slimline stencil for this design so I used a 6x6 stencil and started off by ink blending my lightest colours first and then carefully shifting the stencil along to blend the rest of the colours.

When I finished applying all the colours I added some water splatters. I die cut a black panel using a slimline scalloped die to go behind my stencilled panel.

The Hugs die was cut twice with black cardstock and once from a piece of black foam.

I adhered the rainbow panel to my black card piece and then added that to my card base.

For a finishing touch I added a few clear sequins.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

 Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share using a couple of stencils and some embossing paste. It was difficult to capture the beautiful sparkle of the paste with the lighting I had on the day I took the photo but it really is quite pretty 🤩 

I started with the tree stencil first and applied some Gina K glitter gel on to a piece of wood grain card stock. I set that aside to dry and went on to die cutting 3 tiny birds from some red card stock.

Once the first stencil piece was dry I carefully added a snow stencil to my piece and added some distress paste.

I mounted the panel with foam tape on to a piece of black card stock and then added that to my card.

The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder and added to my card with foam tape.

I popped up the little bird with a small foam dot and that completes my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻
