March Stencil Challenge | Hello Beautiful

Hello everyone! I am here again today sharing this CAS card.

I made this CAS card using Make Marks 5 ARTplorations Stencil, Bloom Doodles Stamp Set, Just Everyday Greetings Clear Stickers, and Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

I used the resist embossing technique with the stencil, embossing powder and watermark ink pad. I embossed it twice and then added watercolor paint. And I cut the background panel with the rectangle die.

I added the clear sticker on a white cardstock and trimmed it.

I also heat embossed the flowers, leaves and brances. I stamped them on a white cardstock and embossed it with the glitter black embossing powder. After that I fussy cut them with scissors.

You still have time to play along with this March Stencil Challenge. You can create any type of projects as long as you use any stencils on it. Link up your project for a chance to win the prize! I hope to see your projects.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! Have wonderful day.

Dare 2B Artzy | Encouragement Slimline Card

We all experience many things in our lives that turn our life upside down but through those times we also can learn to live our lives right side up. These experiences can change our perspectives.

Today, I share this encouragement slimeline card at Dare 2B Arzy blog.

I love this sentiment quote from the Groundhog Garden stamp set which is encouraging as well. After stamping, I colored the groundhog image with ShinHan alcohol markers.

I stamped the grass image twice with green pigment ink pad and then I cut it using the matching Groundhog Garden die set.

I added the could border on top of the groundhog image and sentiment. I cut out a piece of white cardstock using the cloud border die from the Slimline Land & Cloud Border Die.

And for the frame element on this card, I used one of the pattern papers from the Home Grown Collection Variety Pack. I cut the pattern paper using two size of dies from the Rectangle Slimline Framelit Dies.

Come and play along with our March Challenge. You still have time to link up your project and have a chance to win a $15 gift card to the D2BA Store.

That’s my card for today. I hope you like it and thank you so much for stopping by.

Dare 2B Artzy | Anything Is Popsicle

Hello artzy friends! March is here. Anything is popsicle, right? Today, I wanna share this pun fun fold card.

This card is easy to make and I share the details at Dare 2B Artzy blog today. I use the new Raccoon Party Stamp set and matching die set, also the new Ice Cream Social Papers Variety Pack.

I used Neenah white cardstock 80 lbs for the pop up card base. It is perfect size for a card base. I cut the cardstock using the cardstock with Wavy Square Fun Fold Die. I cut the pattern papers for the background mats using paper trimmer and added on the card base with permanent adhesive runner. I cut one of the patterned paper with Wavy Squares Framelit Die and I added on the front card with 3D adhesive.

For the sentiment, I stamped it on a white cardstock with the black ink pad, and then I cut it with the label die from Wavy Slimline Framelit Dies. I added it in the inside card with 3D foam tape. This will make the sentiment pop up and hold the front panel up.

I stamped the raccoon with popsicle image with VersaFine Clair Nocture on a white cardstock, dried the ink, and then color it with Arteza EverBlend markers. After that, I added some glittler on it with Wink Of Stella clear glitter brush. I dried the glitter with craft heater. 

After I cut the raccoon image with the matching die, I added it on top of the wavy square mat with permanent adhesive runner.

This card is fold flat enough and can be sent using regular mail postal stamp, too. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog. Have a wonderful day!

March Stencil Challenge | Foiled Background

Hello everyone!! March is here already. It is a new month and we have a new stencil challenge for you!

I use the Clustered Hearts ARTploration Stencil, Beautiful Friends Stamp Set, and Bracket Labels/Tags Nesting Dies.

For the first time, I tried the Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo with Deco Foil Transfer Sheets, Emerald Watercolor for the background.

I sprayed the stencil with iCraft Removable Pixie Spray and added the stencil on the heavyweight cardstock.

I added the transfer gel on the stencil using the pallet knife. After that I removed the stencil and let it dry for about an hour.

There are 2 ways to add the foil sheet on. First, you can run it through any diecutting machine and second way is you can run it through a laminator machine or foiling machine.

For my card, I run it through my Gemini Junior machine. After that, I pulled the foil sheet of the cardstock. It was super easy.

I added some splatters of spray paints on the background. Then I added the stamped sentiment label on the card with permanent adhesive.

I stamped and colored the potted flower with Arteza Woodless watercolor pencils and then I fussy cut it with scissors. I added it on the card with 3D foam tape.

This March Stencil Challenge at STAMPlorations is anything goes challenge. You can create any type of projects as long as you use any stencils on it.

You have until the end of the month to link up your project for a chance to win the prize! I hope to see your projects.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. Have wonderful day!
