STAMPlorations November Stencil Reminder Post.
Time is flying by, with more inspiring stencil projects by our awesome DT!
I am Loving Shery's Clear Stickers products. I have several sets and have been using
them often. So quick and easy to add to a finished card. Here is the link
to the 29 (so far) Clear Sticker sets:-)
The Happy Happy set includes 4 different Birthday sentiments with a total of 32
Birthday Stickers.
Now onto my card...I added drops of Quinacridone Nickle Azo Gold and Green shades of
Acrylic paints to my Glass Mat, sprayed with water then brayered to blend.
Placed mixed media paper over paints and pressed down to cover paper with paint.
Quickly placed "Leaf Prints Stencil" over painted paper before paint dried and
used baby wipes to lift color from leaf images. When dry I die cut the
background into 2 pieces to create 2 finished cards.
I added White Craft Foam to both backgrounds and attached to textured Card Base.
Easily added the Clear Sticker "Happy Happy" sentiments and Done!
I really had fun with this baby wipe technique and loved both cards.
Here is my 2nd card
Enjoy and hope you get to join us at STAMPlorations November Stencil Challenge.
You have until the end of the month to play along. Hugs..

Wow, this is just amazing, Nancy. I love the mix of colors, then the stencil over it. I've never used paints on mm c/s and now I want to try that. I have lots of paints left over from projects that I don't use so now they can feel wanted again. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried this but what a stunning result you got her. Gorgeous colours and such a lovely card!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing background, Nancy! I love how the paint lifted to show these pretty leaves!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful background and a neat technique - must try it. I really like the colours you used - perfect for autumn.
ReplyDeleteWow, wonderful fall background, Nancy! Love the way the colors mixed. I bought my first acrylic paints just last week, so I'd love to try this technique. The stenciled (color lifted) leaves look amazing. The clear sticker sentiments are perfect for this kind of projects, aren't they? I know I should use the stickers you gifted me, but I still enjoy just looking at them. :-)

Thank you so much, Hideko. I really enjoyed trying the color lift technique using acrylic paints. Do use the stickers..so quick and easy and look great..I think! I just saw Monika use alcohol ink markers to color over the stencils, which was cool. I do not have any Copics, but plenty of AI refills that would be fun to try. Thank you again. Hugs..Nancy
DeleteBoth cards are so artsy and what fabulous colours. The baby wipe technique looks fabulous. Amazing inspiration Nancy.....Thank you x.
ReplyDeletelove those artsy backgrounds Nancy and stunning colours :)
ReplyDeleteOh, now I really love the colors on this. Both cards are so warm and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous cards from your one stencil session, Nancy. Love the rustic fall colours. So perfect with the leaf stencil. Those stickers are fabulous! Can't wait to use the ones you sent me. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great stencil session Nancy - two lovely cards!
ReplyDeleteLooks great, but I always have a problem with Stickers - they feel like cheating to me....
