DIRECTIONS
Apply an even light coat of gesso
on a sheet of water color paper and allow it to dry.
Using the direct to paper method
of application, apply Brilliance inks to the paper. Spray inks with their corresponding
Fireworks! Spray inks and allow inks to blend. Dry with a heat gun.
Lay a stencil over the prepared
paper and spritz with water, blot dry.
Lay a different stencil over
paper and apply a thin coating of gesso.
Allow to dry.
Using a different stencil apply
Brilliance Pearlescent Poppy ink randomly to the paper. Allow to dry.
Cut panels to fit the size card
that you want to make, in this case the watercolor panel is 4” by 6”. Stamp and cut out a heart shape.
Using Ruby Rock It
embellishments pop out hearts and circles, stamp them with text stamps, set
aside. Pop out an oval shape from
collection and use the white side to stamp phrase on with the Lightning Black
ink. Distress the edge of oval shape
with Poppy colored ink.
Mat watercolor panel on black
card stock that measures a ¼” larger all around, mat on to white blank card
that measures 4 ½” by 6 ½”.
Stamp heart on panel and then
again on a scrap piece of water color paper.
Stencil red circles on to the second heart and cut out. Attach the cut out heart on top of the
stamped heart on the card.
Glue heart, oval and circles on
to the card and attach a bow tied from black twine.
Thanks for stopping by, please leave a comment if you have time, I love to hear from you. Take care~Renee
Great card, Renee! Very cool how that one stencil gives the heart movement of a beating heart. Great tut also.
ReplyDeleteHi, Renee, and Merry Christmas! Great card here--love its versatility! You have created a concise and clear tutorial here, which I promise to try. I love how you create with things *normally* found in a craft room-- things most of us already have and needn't rush out to buy in order to make your project. Another great use for the stencils I have been accumulating! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Renee - great techniques! I need to try the gesso and stencils - love the look. Nicely done!
