I created a card that I thought would be appropriate for a Winter birthday!

ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Snowflakes Stencil

STAMPlorations Homespun Christmas

CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies

Close Up of sparkle and Shine!

I used a favorite ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Snowflakes Stencil

for my background.  I used one of my new Ranger Detail Blending Tools 

(there are 5 in a pkg)

to apply versamark ink thru the stenciled snowflakes.  The Tool worked Great!

Next I removed stencil and heat embossed the snowflakes with 

Nuvo Shimmering Pearl EB Powder.

  Loved the beautiful shiny shimmery snowflakes.

Next stamped the STAMPlorations Homespun Christmas  log cabin image

 in Misti using Distress Oxide Antique Linen for a no line effect. 

 Then watercolored with Zigs.

Made my snow by adding Connect Glue to the snow areas and 

sprinkled with SU Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.

  Let Dry and fussy cut with papersnips.

Stamped sentiment from same set (LOVE all the sentiments in the set)!

Then fussy cut sentiment.  Die cut main image layer and card front with 

CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

Assembled card layers and popped up main image with dimensionals and Done!

We would love to have you join us at STAMPlorations January 2022 Stencil Challenge.

Happy Healthy Creative New Years,  dear friends.

ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Fairy Tale Forest Stencil.

Clear Stickers Free Spirit 

CUTplorations Crazy Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies

I used a Stencil Monoprint Technique on Strathmore Mixed Media paper.

I placed the ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Fairy Tale Forest Stencil

over the MM paper.

Next I  sprinkled Bisters crystal inks over the stencil and spritzed with water

using Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer to reconstitute the crystals.  Then carefully 

flipped the stencil onto another piece of MM paper and used a paper towel to press the

inks into the MM paper.  That gives you a cool monoprint image.

You can see then how the white areas are the Fairy Tale Forest Stencil image.

You can get another 1 or 2 lighter images on more paper for softer backgrounds.

I got 2 more pulls for future projects:-)  I used Yellow, Green, Blue and Natural 

Bisters crystals.

When 1st image was dry I die cut with 

CUTplorations Crazy Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

Added natural twine.  Popped up with craft foam STAMPlorations

 Clear Stickers Free Spirit sentiment.

Attached layers to SU Crumbcake Cardstock and Done!

I loved the earth tones and the stenciled monoprint image.

There are so many creative ways to use stencils

and STAMPlorations ARTplorations has a huge selection to choose from:-)

You have until the end of the month to hop along with us at 

STAMPloration Stencil  Anything Goes Challenge!

Love and Hugs...

ARTplorations Sanna Lippert Designs Barley Stencil

Happy Happy-Clear Stickers

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....
