Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I haven't played with Stencils and Spray Inks for a while...time for a change from cards...

I started with Card Front Stencil Pack 2 + Ranger Opaque Matte Texture Paste. Then, I sprayed 3 different colors + water to spread the colors around the art journal page. I stamped the lady (Finnabair - Dare to Dream/Prima) on cardstock and fussy cut her out, colored with markers and paint and adhered on page. I brushed diluted dye ink on some stenciled flowers and drew a "skirt". Then, I stamped texture (CTMH Perfectly Imperfect Patterns Stamp Set) + sentiment on with ink pads.

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!

I saw this challenge at CAS Mix Up July Stencil Challenge...


...and thought it was interesting going back to some early techniques that we used to try on our paper crafting journey! Haven't done this in a loong time (click HERE to see my Mixed-Media Art Journal Spread)...usually I spray or blend inks, so it was fun making some cards with this technique:




I made a quick video showing how I made my cards using some die-cut left over "stencils":


I pre-printed some Club Scrap Fly a Kite digital papers and my Stamprints digital stamps (available on Etsy) on cardstock and trimmed into panels to go on my card bases. Then, added more designs with the stencil tracing technique and embellished with Jane Davenport's Glitter markers.
