Hello my friends, I'm sharing the first of the series of cards I made for the YouTube Live launch of Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous using the Modern Tree Layering and Mini Layering Stencils from Set 62 and sentiments from Home For Christmas.
I only intended making one card for the Live but you know me, once I fall down the rabbit hole, there's no way I can stop myself.
I trimmed Distress Watercolor card to 4" x 6.3/4", laid the Modern Tree Layering Stencil on the card panel and stamped the sentiment from Home For Christmas repeatedly through the stencil, inked with Black Soot Distress Archival ink.
I smooshed Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink on to the craft mat on my Tim Holtz/Tonic Studios White Studio Mat, spritzed with water, dragged the panel through the ink and dried.
I replaced the stencil and marked the circles using a waterproof black liner pen.
I added shading to the circles using a Picked Raspberry Distress Watercolor Pencil and a Distress Detailer Brush.
I placed the stencil back in place and applied Distress Texture Paste Sparkle through the stencil. Once the paste had dried, I applied Distress Black Texture Paste through the Sparkle Fade Mini Layering Stencil and the star on the Modern Tree Layering Stencil and added a flittering of Distress Platinum Glitter using the Glitter Duster.
I matted the panel on to Distress Black HeavyStock, trimmed to 5" x 7", added Black Enamel Dots and black and white check ribbon tied in a bow. To finish I fixed the panel to a 5" x 7" white card blank.
I'll be back tomorrow to share the 2nd card in the series, in the meantime, have fun with whatever you're making.
Hugs Kath xxx
