Hello friends!! Nora here on the blog today with my first card as a Design Team Member!! I used the Bokeh Stencil Set (42048) with the Ornamental Branch die (57601), the Big Hello Vintage Sentiment die (57549) and the Loop Stitch Frames (57688) to create a simple card.
I started off my card by ink blending aqua ink on a 4” by 3” piece of white cardstock. I then adhered the paper to an A2 sized white card base.
Next I created a frame out of white cardstock using two of the Loop Stitch dies. I adhered the frame over the top of the aqua on the card front.
I used the Ornamental Branch and cut a bough out of white cardstock. I adhered the branch over the left side of the Loop Frame.
I had so much fun using the Bokeh Stencil Set to stencil a small piece of white cardstock. I actually used the stencil by lifting it up and moving it over and over to get the circles where I wanted them to go.
I used the Big Hello Vintage Sentiment outline die to cut the “hello” out of the stenciled paper. I used the solid sentiment die to cut four, white sentiment bases. I adhered the bases together and then glued the bokeh hello over the top.
I added my sentiment to the front of the card and finished it up by adhering some ombre pearls randomly across the card front.
This was a fun card to make. I have never used a stencil to create paper for a die cut sentiment and I will be using this technique again in the future. I think it has a big impact for any card front.
I hope that my card has inspired you to try this fun technique. I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day.
