Using stencils for cardmaking

Posted on by

Earlier this year, Stampin’ Up! brought out a layering stencil called Loveliest Layers Decorative Mask. It is a fun stencil to use as it creates a big flower using four different layers of stencils. (Two for the flower and two for the leaves).

There is also a lovely patterned stencil to make backgrounds with. I used it for the top of my card.

I made a big square card (13.4 cm square) as it was a good size to show of the flower. I used Polished Pink and Melon Mango inks and a blending brush to add ink

The inside of the card has a strip of patterned called Pattern Party Designer series paper. It was from a pack that I bought last year.

Floating Flowers card

This is a fun pop up card using the free SAB designer series paper and the Hues of Happiness bundle.

The flowers are all stamped with versamark and heat embossed with either black or white embossing powder.

I embossed them on various pieces of coloured cardstock so I had the colours I wanted without needing to colour any in. It is a quick and effective way to add colour.

Beautifully Happy Card

I used some new product and some free Sale-a-bration (SAB) product to make this pretty card.

The flowers and words come from a stamp set called Beautifully Happy. You can receive this for free with a qualifying stampin up order. The tartan paper strip is also from a free SAB pack. The paper with the gold and blue foils is from a new offering called dry brushed metallic paper. I just love it. It adds a real touch of elegance.

I stamped another small flower image inside the card to match the one on the front. This stamp set uses two step stamping so it was really easy to add colour using the stamps. I added a few highlights by using watercolour pencils..

I love hearing your feedback, so please let me know what you think of this card. Is it one that you would like to CASE? (Copy And Share with Everyone).
