You’re Pretty Amazing

I’m back again with another stencil card for Virginia’s View Challenge #2. I’m having so much fun stenciling that I couldn’t help myself so I made another card.  For this card, I used three different inks and my Kelly Purkey Teardrop stencil.  It took no time, as a matter of fact I made two cards with two different sentiments but the one I’m posting today, the sentiment was a better fit.

Take a look:

You're Pretty Amazing

This one layer card is sooooo “fiery”.  I just love it.

Please leave me a comment below letting me know what you think.

This Is How We Do It

I have to say stenciling is my favorite technique.  Once I started yesterday I couldn’t stop.  So I created another card to enter into Virginia’s View Challenge and Less is More Challenge.

Virginia’s View Challenge: Stencils

Less is More Challenge: A Touch of Turquoise

The create I create has both elements.  I use Simon Says Stamp Medium Dots Stencil and Tumble Glass Distress Ink and Stampin’ Up Tempting Turquoise embossing power.

I left a lot of white space but elegantly add a bit of color.  I love how the card came out.

Take a look:

This Is How We Do It

All I did was stencil the right corner of the mask layer, embossed my image on the vellum tag and adhere all of it together.  Simple and easy.

Please let me know what you think.  I would really appreciate your feedback.

Stencil Class Day 4

Today is the last day to my online stencil card class.  Today’s assignment was to use any of the techniques we learn and create a card.  I choose to use the free stencil that was given to us.  I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the stencil. Then I use sponge daubers to apply the ink for each of the flowers.  Tell me what you think?

You Make Me Happy

I really had a great time in this class.  I learned a lot about stenciling.  I will continue to use stenciling more on my cards.

Stencil Class Day 3

Today is the third day of my stencil class.  There is only one more day left and I’ve learned a lot in such a short time.  Today’s card, I used the stencil and covered it with paste to create the wavy textured surface.  I added glitter to the wet paste to give the stenciled look a little shimmer.  I also embossed the greeting.  It was fun and really messy!

Stenciled Class Day 2- Stenciled Card

So here is my stenciled card as promised.  I used a heart stencil and colored pencils and colored each heart in with different colors randomly.  I loved how this card came out.  The hearts are much smaller.  I was able to double the amount of hearts on my card.  This was fun to make because I went back to the basics, Coloring.

All of the supplies are the same except the heart stencil and the color pencils.

Stencil Class Day 2

So today is day 2 of my 4 day stencil class.  I’m learning a lot.  Today’s class we learned different techniques on how to use stencils.  I tried a couple of them and didn’t like the results so I’m going to keep trying until I get it right.  There was one technique that was easy enough not to mess up.  Guess what that technique is?  It’s so simple, you will laugh.  Have you guessed it yet?  Well here is the answer, its COLORING.  Yes, simple children’s play, Coloring with colored pencils!!  How could I mess that up?

The stencil used to make that card, I didn’t have.  I’m going to get that stencil today, but in the meantime, I had a heart stamp that would do just fine.  So, I made a card with the heart stamp from the ” Perfect Pennants” stamp set.  I love how the card came out.  The heart stamp is so full and small to me.  I want to stamp it everywhere!  I cant wait to see how it will look once I stencil the hearts.  Take a look at the stamped card.

Hearts Enjoy

 

How precious!! I used the new in-colors ink pads to create the color hearts.  Aren’t those colors yummy!  Tell me what you think of my stamped image.

Stencil Class Day 1

I’m so excited about starting my new Stencil Class.  I’ve never stenciled before and wanted to try it on some of my cards.  Take a look at my first card.  Don’t laugh, its a start.  No matter how much tape I used to keep the stencil in place it just wouldn’t cooperate with me.  Tomorrow’s card should be better then today’s.
