ALWAYS & FOREVER DAY 5 STENCILS UNLEASHED

 

Hi everyone! I have a fun stencil card I created for 

I am having so much fun creating with my stencils and all the different mediums Nicole has shared with us. Today's card is using the flowing hearts stencil. I laid it over watercolor paper and applied limestone ink with a blending brush.

Once I had my base down (it is super light so I can paint). I pulled out my 36 pan watercolor set and started painting in the design. I used the crimson on the outer edge and coral berry for the inside. Using a very fine paint brush I traced around the edges and then painted the middle. 

I then took the on point stencil and using limestone ink again I stenciled it onto my background panel. After it was where I wanted it I stamped some leaves from the leaf canopy stamp set. I also stamped and cut out some in green behind my heart. 

I add a sentiment from sentiment strips and cutting it out with the coordinating die set featured sentiments dies. I finished off the the card using some enamel dots in rock and red cosmos collections.

leaf canopy stamps/dies, sentiment strips, featured sentiments dies

YOUR AMAZING DAY 1 STENCILS UNLEASHED

 Hi everyone! I have a fun card to share with you today. I've been taking a class over at the Altenew Academy called

This class has been so much fun. I didn't get to start it until three days in so I'll have a few more posts coming your way. But for day one it was a fun technique using simple coloring stencils.

I used Kind Reminders coloring stencils to create the inside of my flowers and leaves. I did stamp the outline with the stamp to give me a nice crisp look. 

I used three different colors of purple to create the flowers. Using one color per each. By just layering the color on with the different layers of stencil it gave an appearance of multiple colors. I created the leaves the same way.

For the upper corner I used the foliage stencil. this is also a two layer so I thought it paired well. 

I ended up not using all three flowers I colors I decided to decorate the inside of my card with the third. I knew if I didn't use it on this card changes were I'd never use it.
