ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Barley Stencil
CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangles Nesting Dies
I chose a favorite ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Barley Stencil
for a mixed media October Autumn Stenciled Style Card!
I do Love the Fall Season and Fall colors😊
I used a Tone on Tone Blending Technique to add Distress Oxide inks to
Strathmore Mixed Media paper.
I used these DOX inks: Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, Vintage Photo
and Bundled Sage. Applying the ink with makeup brushes and continuing to blend the colors
until I was happy with the background.
Next I spritzed the card front with water using Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer and
blotted dry with paper towel. Loved the added subtle texture.
Then placed the stencil over the card front and secured with 3M Masking Tape.
Dabbed the stencil with Clear Versamark and Heat Embossed with Distress Embossing Glaze.
Using: Fossilized Amber, Antique Linen, Crackling Campfire, Weathered Wood and Rusty Hinge.
I let the glaze powders mix with each other and then heat embossed.
I saved the leftover mixed powders in a tiny jar and named Fall colors:-)
The colors and shine are beautiful.
Then die cut the card front with
CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangles Nesting Dies.
I made a small background with the same Distress Inks , spritzed with water, trimmed
and added the Happy Happy-Clear Stickers sentiment and popped up with craft foam.
Next attached card front to SU Pear Pizzazz Cardstock and Done!!!
Enjoy and Happy Autumn Season and Colors, my friends.
Love and Hugs....
