AAA Birthday challenge - game #21 A stencil background

-

 

Hello everyone! And happy new year to all! Fingers crossed for a better 2021, right? 
Today we're kicking off the first challenge of 2021 over at AAA Birthday challenge blog, and the theme is - A stencil background. I don't think I have to tell you that I love stencils. In fact, it's probably my most favorite technique of all! There are som many different types of stencils. Different patterns, layering, masking, etc. They're low priced and so versatile! What's not to love?!

Since it's January I wanted to create a winter scene for my birthday card. And these My favorite things Snow buddies are just perfect for that.

For my background I used 3 different stencils. First I masked off the bottom with the Simon says stamp Waves and hills stencil (I cut mine apart for better usage). Then I blended the top of the background with Picked raspberry, Blueprint sketch and Black soot oxide inks. I'll be honest, this isn't my best blending but I wanted to avoid getting a blended purple in the middle. 
I let it dry and then laid over the My favorite things Ray of light stencil. I softly wiped over it with Spun suger oxide ink.

I used the SSS stencil and Spun sugar oxide ink to create a few snowbanks. I then dried the panel with my heat tool and applied some Ranger opaque white texture paste through That special taste of Snow is falling stencil and set it aside to dry. 

I popped up the images with craft foam and I had to remove a few of the snow dots. They peeled off easily. Of course I had to add a little sparkle and (although it's hard to see) I also added small dots of liquid applique to the dog. Maybe those girls aren't as sweet and innocent as they look...

I hope you're feeling inspired to create your own stencil background and join our challenge. 

Thanks for stopping by!
Stay safe and happy crafting!

    Hello friend!! I love the effect that was created from the thickness of the stencil (those light/faint lines of white). It almost looks like you folded the cardstock or had a dry embossed piece that you inked. So fun!!

Copic vedligeholdelse - hvordan & hvorfor

  Hej! Jeg laver ellers ikke blog på dansk, men men tænkte at der måske var nogle som kunne gøre brug af det.  Jeg har længe villet lave en blog post om Copic vedligeholdelse - også kendt som Copic spa day - og nu har jeg endelig fundet tid til det.  Det er en lang post, så hent en kop kaffe og sæt dig til rette.  For god ordens skyld gør jeg opmærksom på, at jeg viser min egen foretrukne metode og at alle holdninger er mine egne. Teksten må ikke kopieres eller gengives uden accept.  Først og fremmest - HVORFOR bør man bruge tid på at rengøre sine tuscher?  Du har endelig købt nogle tuscher, nogle ret dyre tuscher i min optik, og nu vil du bare farvelægge. Har jeg ret?  Rengøring af så mange tuscher tager lidt tid og jeg forstår fuldt ud, hvis nogle synes det er langsommeligt og spild af tid. Men hvad hvis jeg siger, at vedligeholdelse af dine Copic tuscher vil forlænge deres levetid og forbedre brugen af dem? Rengøring er essentielt for alle Copic-bru...

Hey guys. How heartbroken are you to see all the burned animals in Australia? I can't even.... I chose this digital image  Lili of the valley Koala . The profits of the sale from this cutie will be donated to the WWF Australian bushfires relief, so get shopping people! I colored it with Copics and cut it with a My favorite things Wonky stitched frame. Copics used: Koala: W5, W3, W1, W0 + C1 Tree: E50, G40, E42, E31, E34 Leaves: BG57, G02, G00, YG01 Flowers: YG17, YG06, YG03, Y000 Butterfly: YG06, YG01, E44, E47 I also printed this Make it Crafty Gumnut flower corner and fuzzy cut it out. I "colored" the flowers with a white Sakura gelly roll pen. Copics used: Leaves: BG57, G02, G00, YG01 Flowers + stem: YG17, YG06, YG03, Y000 I stamped a sentiment from Poppystamps Whittles Everyday and popped up the panel and gum leaves. Although rain storms have moved in, fires are still raging. The animals of Australia still need our help. The lu...
