You Are a Blessing!!
HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!
Larissa here today to share a SWEET Retro Inspired Card using the NEW Layered Rainbow Layering Stencil and the Blessing Bear Stamp and coordinating Blessing Bear Die Set!! Let’s get Started!!
First I sprayed the Back Side of the Stencils with Therm O Web Pixie Spray!! I LOVE how it helps to hold my Stencil into place with out the need for a whole bunch of Tape!! Then I placed it over my Card Panel that was Die Cut from some Distress Watercolor Cardstock using the Modern Embossed Rectangle Stack Die Set!! I placed the First Stencil into place over my Card Panel and then pressed it firmly into place!! Then I inked with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink!! I removed the Stencil and cleaned it and moved onto the next Color!!
I placed the Next Stencil into place over my Card Panel, lining up the Rainbow Ray with the already Inked Rainbow Ray and then pressed it firmly into place!! I did have to add some Purple Tape onto the Bottom of the Stencil area to protect my Card Panel from getting Inked up, Then I inked with Crackling Campfire Distress Oxide Ink!! I removed the Stencil and cleaned it and moved onto the next Color!!
I placed the Next Stencil into place over my Card Panel, lining up the Rainbow Ray with the already Inked Rainbow Ray and then pressed it firmly into place!! Again I had to add some Purple Tape onto the Bottom of the Stencil area to protect my Card Panel from getting Inked up, Then I inked with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink!! I removed the Stencil and cleaned it and moved onto the next Color!!
I placed the Next Stencil into place over my Card Panel, lining up the Rainbow Ray with the already Inked Rainbow Ray and then pressed it firmly into place!! Again I had to add some Purple Tape onto the Bottom of the Stencil area to protect my Card Panel from getting Inked up, Then I inked with Evergreen Bough Distress Oxide Ink!! I removed the Stencil and cleaned it and moved onto the next Color!!
I placed the Next Stencil into place over my Card Panel, lining up the Rainbow Ray with the already Inked Rainbow Ray and then pressed it firmly into place!! Again I had to add some Purple Tape onto the Bottom of the Stencil area to protect my Card Panel from getting Inked up, Then I inked with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink!! I removed the Stencil and cleaned it and moved onto the next Color!!
I placed the Next Stencil into place over my Card Panel, lining up the Rainbow Ray with the already Inked Rainbow Ray and then pressed it firmly into place!! Again I had to add some Purple Tape onto the Bottom of the Stencil area to protect my Card Panel from getting Inked up, Then I inked with Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink!! I removed the Stencil and cleaned it and moved onto the next Color!!
SWOON!! I just LOVE the Retro Feel of the Rainbow Colors and I like how its placed sideways onto the Card Panel!! Next I Stamped and Embossed the “You are a Blessing” Sentiment also from the Blessing Bear Stamp!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the SWEET Bear also from that Set!! Stamping again with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossing with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! Then I used Copic Markers to Color the Image in!!
BEAR: E40, E43, E44 & E47 CHEEKS & INSIDE of EARS: RV11
PURPLE FLOWERS: V00, V15 & V09 GREEN FLOWERS: YG61, YG63, YG67 Y11 & YR23
Next I used the coordinating Blessing Bear Die Set to Die Cut the Bear Image out!! Then I used some Black Gel Pen to fill in the Bears Nose and Eyes to help make them POP and added some White Gel Pen Details to add some Highlights!! I LOVE the way these little details make the Bear come to LIFE!!
To finish off the Design with some SPRAKLE, I added some of the Fairy Rocks Rhinestones Embellishments using some Ultra Bond Adhesive and I just ADORE how this Card turned out!! It has a Retro feel to me and yet anything with a Rainbow is SURE to BRIGHTEN the Day of someone SPECIAL!!
So there you have a Look at the NEW Layered Rainbow Layering Stencil and how to use it for a Scene on a Card in kind of an unexpected way!! This Layering Stencil is SO VERSITILE and can be used to create Larger 5×7 Cards as well!! I hope I’ve INSPIRED you today!!
