SWEET CARD - Stenciling, Coloring and Die-cutting
A2 Card Base: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Stenciled Layer: 4" x 5 1/4"
Featuring:
COLOR PALETTE
CARD WALKTHROUGH
STENCILING THE BACKGROUND
Trim a sheet of 110LB / 80LB Neenah Cardstock to 6" x 6" and secure the cardstock to your preferred craft surface. The Large Chevron Stencil comes in 4 layers.
You should match each layer to the ink color before you start. I wanted the center chevron to be in the Sprout color but you can choose the color you prefer.
I started with ink-blending Charcoal stripes using the Small Smoke (grey) Blending Brush.
Use a light touch when blending so that your colors don't stray out of the lines.
STAMPING/DIE-CUTTING THE SENTIMENTS
Trim a small strip of silver Luxe Cardstock to create a border around the pink sentiment .
COLORING AND DIE-CUTTING THE BEAR
Markers:
Bear Body - N0, N1, N3, N4
Bear Cheeks & Ears - R20
Santa Hat - N0, RV06, RV09
Candy - RV04, RV06, RV09, R27, R29
Okay all of your embellishments are now ready to be layered on your background!
Loving the stripes and the pink sentiment framed with a little bit of sparkle!
This bear is truly a sweetie!
All done!
Now all you have to do is decide who you will give this cutie to!
It's not the fastest card in the world but it's got a lot of pretty so I hope you will give it a try. I want to make sure that you get the most of today's blog hop, so please take note Lovelies:
