I'm back today with my final projects as a guest designer for A Colorful Life Designs! I have had such fun - and shared a few ways we can use these wonderful ACLD stencils on our cards!
My last card features that little teaser I mentioned last week: Sea Foam
Here is how I made it the perfect environment for a sleepy seafaring sailor - although how he could sleep through those waves is beyond me:
starburst sentiment strip dies, plus Stitched Scallops - no longer available.
This time, I purposely inked up the stencil on my glass mat, spritzed it with
water and flipped it over on an A2 panel of Neenah 110# cardstock.
Okay, yes, it did warp - but I knew I would be sending it through my die-cutting
machine after it dried to cut the waves - flattened it out nicely!
ONE more!
Oh Happy Day is a sentiment from The Stamp Market.
A sprinkle of Martha S. punched butterflies, and the centers of my
groovy flowers are leftovers from an old Dotted die from MFT.
This Groovy Flower Mask brought me right back to the 70's!
Who remembers avocado green? My panel was stenciled in a traditional way,
using Peeled Paint Distress Oxide inks - keeping the center a little less intense. Then my micron pen went to work, again, to bring out the groovy-ness!
A splash of black splats, and die-cut with a stitched rectangle, and
it was a happy card completed!
Thank you, A Colorful Life Designs! and my friend Amy for inviting me
to delve more deeply into the wonderful world of stencils!
I had a blast!
