WOOHOO! The STAMPlorations is back. Kicking of this new year, they are releasing these 14 new card front sets! And today, I got to share a couple cards using one of them, the Etheral Faces card fronts.

This Etheral Faces card front sets is a pack of 8 card front designs with 4 graphic designs, two piece of each. The images are printed on a very thick cardstocks of 4 inch x 5.25 inch, perfect to be used as the card fronts directly, can be colored, die cut, or even to use it on any other paper crafting projects.

I made these two cards using two of the four designs. It is very easy and quick to make them. It is a great way to start buikding up the stash of greeting cards for the year.

First, I cut out 2 piece of white cardstocks using the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies. I added each of background panel to a card base with permanent adhesive glue.

On each card front, I trimmed it about a quarter inch smaller. First I added some of the Vintage Photo Distress Ink using a finger sponge around the edges toward the middle a little bit. And then, I added some of the Gathering Twigs Distress Ink using a finger sponge just around the edges for darker shade of the shadow.

To give them more texture and some depth of the vintage look, I sprayed lightly with some water using the Distress Spray bottle and dabbed it off with paper towel. I dried them with a craft heat gun. Then, I added each of them the card base with permanent adhesive glue.

I cut out a white cardstock using the Hello Word Die and the Life Is Good Phrase Die. I cut out 3 times for each of them. Then I stacked them together with permanent glue adhesive to make them look like thicker word chip sentiment. I added each sentiment on each card with thin foam tape for extra dimensions to them.
