Holiday Card Series 2024 – Day 2 – Stenciling With Interference Inks

November 29, 2024

Hey everyone. Welcome to the Holiday Card Series 2024 Day 2 – Stenciling With Interference Inks. This is the first time trying out these inks and spoiler alert: I REALLY LIKE THEM! They go on like butter and have so much shimmer in them. The color shift is also amazing.

For the tutorial today. I’m sharing how these inks work on white card stock. The beautiful thing about these inks is the shifting of the colors. Having an ink pad that you can use on darker card stocks as well as white card stock is truly going to change the way we create.

After seeing multiple videos of these inks, I decided I needed to give them a try. And what can I say, I am pleasantly surprised and now I want all the colors. 😂 I feel this is definitely going to be a full set syndrome for sure.

Okay let’s get into the tutorial for today. Affiliate links have been used at no cost to you. Thank you for your support as it really helps me continue to create inspiration for you.

As promised here is the black version of this card! Can you say mind blowing?!?!? I used the exact same colors and this is what I achieved on black cardstock.

Thanks for stopping by today. See you back here shortly with another video.

MFT February 2024 Release

February 27, 2024

Hey everyone. MFT February 2024 release is now available and it’s awesome. I couldn’t wait to make a card with the Happiness Comes In Small Packages stamp set. I don’t make baby cards that often but this one has my heart.

With a stamp set this cute, I had to use the new Smart Mask Horizontal Diagonal Center stencil. It was the perfect stencil for a lot of added color without it being everywhere. You must grab this stencil because it’s so much fun to work with.

By lightly ink blending distress oxide inks in Kitsch Flamingo and Wilted Violet, I was able to create this pretty blend. Adding a little it of shimmer spray before I removed the stencil gave this ink blend a dreamy effect. The little bunnies were colored with Copic markers (E00, E50, E53, RV11, RV00) as well as the balloons (RV11, RV14 and Olo Marker V2.6). Having the coordinating die cuts was a much for cutting out those balloons.

Let’s give MFT a round of applause for making yet again another wonderful stamp set and stencil to have in our craft supplies. So grab your goodies from the MFT February 2024 release today! Have a wonderful day everyone.

Stay Golden Layering Stencil

August 22, 2023

Hey everyone. Hope you are having a great day. Today I have a card using the Stay Golden Color Layering Stencil from the Hero Arts August 2023 release. This card really does have my heart. Using a stamp and coordinating stencil makes a great card. However, when you only use the stencil, the card becomes super soft and pretty.

The Stay Golden layering stencil really makes it easy to bring your flowers to life. The colors on this card work perfectly for layering the colors. Using light and dark variation of pinks and greens allow me to really build up the layers and gives me a beautiful result.

By letting the gorgeous colorful flowers be the star, a quick happy birthday across the card with this panel matted on black completes the look.

Making sure not to add anything to distract from the card, I used a few white pearls on my card for added dimension. Swooning over this card for sure. If you create this card, let me know what color combination you would use. Make sure to grab your Stay Golden Color Layering Stencil today. I will see you back here soon. Have a great day.

Graphic Mountains With A Stencil

August 15, 2023

Hey everyone. I’m back with a quick card sharing a bold design. The new Hero Arts Graphic Mountains stencil is perfect to use with the Hero Arts Two-Tone Metallic Sprays. By covering up each section with a mask, you can color this stencil with the sprays in individual sections.

I used the Two-Tone Green and Gold spray for the mountains. I really wish you could see the shimmer and shine better on this card. For the sun I used the Two=Tone Yellow and Gold metallic spray. And for the water and sky I used the Two-Tone Blue and Gold spray. These sprays really give you so much with just a few sprays.

My tip is to use Pixie Spray with this stencil. This way your lines won’t move when you add the spray or even when you add inks. If you do get a bit of overspray, just use a white gel pen or a little bit of white gouache to fix the area.

After I finished stenciling the panel, I trimmed it down to back it with a piece of Hero Arts Kiwi cardstock. The sentiment on the card is from the Where To Next stamp set also from Hero Arts. So make graphic mountains with a stencil for your next card. I hope I’ve inspired you to use the new Two-Tone Metallic sprays from Hero Arts. See you back here soon.
