Stenciled card idea

Hello there! I´ve got a stenciled card share up for you today. This is made using STAMPlorations products with some bits and bobs from my older stash.

For this card I first made a collage paper with a gel plate and the Evolution stencil. I then cut the piece to match the card size. Before adhering this piece on place I stenciled in red and orange toned Distress Ink tones and the Henna Pattern stencil below the area where I wanted to attach the collage paper piece. I also outlined the Henna Pattern with a dark brown marker to make it stand out from the background even more. After that I adhered the collage paper piece on place.

For the sentiment I used a Rubber Dance stamp set called “Feathery”. I stamped again using brown ink to keep the colors similar. After that I added some golden pigment droplets here and there on the white space and a row of two different ribbons as well as layered paper flowers and a brad to finish the card off.

I recently went thru my stash and noticed that I have quite an amount of ribbon collected over the years. Thus, I will try and incorporate some ribbon to my cards in the future.

I hope I could inspire you to use some stencils in your cardmaking projects. Also hop over to the STAMPlorations blog to see more inspiration and join the never ending challenge. And like always, here is your discount code for the STAMPlorations store purchaces:

Soft pink toned card

Hello everyone! I´ve been playing with STAMPlorations products again. This time I´ve used some very old rub-ons and flowers from my stash and combines those with new STAMPlorations products.

For this card I took a peach toned cardstock as a base, then added some older white rub-ons on top. I wanted to add a very light stenciling on top with the Henna Pattern stencil and light pink Distress Ink. I like how you need to take a second look on the card to really see the second background layer. It makes the card so much interesting.

Next I arranged 3 flowers on top of each other. Two paper and one fabric flower – these are all older product from my stash.

I then mounted the piece onto a white card base and added a sticker sentiment. This is from the new STAMPlorations Floral Magic clear sticker set. I love the softness of this card and the fact that I could incorporate some old with the new.

Happy crafting,

STAMPlorations 13th Birthday celebration – DAY 4

Hello everyone! Welcome to DAY 4 of the STAMPlorations 13th Birthday celebration!! Today I´ve got two card projects to share with you.

The new product I used for the first card features: Abstract Notes stencil and Big Cupcakes Colorables. From the older product I combined the Sweet Cravings stamp sets sentiments.

I placed the stencil directly onto the card base, applied various tones of Distress Oxide inks thru the stencil pattern to create a bold background. Next I colored the cupcake with alcohol markers and adhered it onto the card base. Finally, I stamped the Sweet Cravings set´s sentiments directly onto the card with black ink.

For the second card I used following new product from the store: Henna Pattern stencil and the Nostalgia #1 Ephemera Cut-Outs. The older product featured is again the Sweet Cravings stamp set.

I simply stenciled the Henna Pattern directly onto the card base by moving it around and creating a full surface random pattern. Next I fussy cut the Nostalgia #1 Ephemera Cut-Outs and adhered the into a cluster onto the card. For finishing touches I added some stamping with Sweet Cravings stamp set and some black ink splatters. I also outlined the card base with a black pen (faux stitching).

Here is a quick peek into Big Cupcakes and Big Birthday Cakes Colorables:

STAMPlorations 13th birthday celebration – DAY 2

Hello and welcome to DAY 2 of the STAMPlorations 13th birthday celebration!!

For this days project I used following NEW PRODUCT: the Henna Pattern stencil and the Profile 2 stencil. The card also features older product: the Mixed Media Grunge stamp set and the Sweet Cravings stamp set´s sentiment.

I first placed the Profile 2 stencil onto a white card base, then directly inked with various yellow and pink/red and brown toned Distress Oxide Inks thru the stencil creating a multi-colored face image. I also used the same ink tones to add some random stamping to the hair using the Mixed Media Grunge stamp set. I then went on to outline the image with a black pen along the stencil lines. After that I used a light green Distress Oxide Ink tone with the Henna Pattern stencil to add details to the background. Finally, I finished the card with a Sweet Cravings set stamped sentiment.

Here is peek into the new stencils:
