This was such a simple card to make. I used a Dream Weaver metal stencil and ran it through my big shot with 110 lb. card stock. I took spong daubers and leaving the die in place i daubed ink into the various areas. added a bit of gray to the trees and that was it. I used a marker to put a green border around the white to set it off against the orange. It was the perfect sympathy card for the family of a woodsman that recently passed.
This next one is the same technique. I think I will get more use out of my metal dies this way. I do want to get some embossing paste out though and play with the drawer full of metal stencils that i have. Be on the look out for those.
Really??? I made a winter card?? in the early fall?? I don’t know what this tri-fold die wouldn’t get out of my mind so i went ahead and pulled it out and laid that thought to rest. I used pre-embossed card stock and the patterened paper i used was actually flowers but cleverly cut to look like snowflake beams. proud of myself for using three pattern papers again.
Thanks for stopping by again and i do enjoy all your encouraging comments. mwhuaaaa!!
Love the stencil cards. I tried running my brass stencils through the Cuttlebug with no luck, so I sold them all. I can't say I miss them however these are stunning cards that make me have a wee bit of regret.
