Welcome to my studio! The 2 cards that I have posted today were inspired by a Jennifer McGuire video show casing a GKD stamp set (now sold out) and using creative masking. I decided to use a GKD Stencil Snowflake Mandala with masking and Distress Oxide inks for blending to create these Christmas cards. Circle dies were used to create the masking. I used a sentiment from GKD Peace and Joy set heat embossed with Gold EP on both cards. The top card was made with DOI Salty Ocean and Faded Jean with GKD Blue Raspberry CS for the base. The bow stamp from GKD Joyful Holiday was heat embossed with Gold EP.
The second card was inked with DOI Candied Apple, Fired Brick, and Worn Lipstick and has a card base of GKD Faded Brick CS. The ornament hook and string from GKD Merry and Bright set was heat embossed with Gold EP and I added a Gold Twine bow.
For both cards, I embellished the ornaments with touches of Glimmering Gold Foil using a Deco Foil Adhesive pen and laminator. These cards were hard to photograph to capture the foil but hope you can see the results.
Challenges:
ModSquad Challenge: Step Up Your Stencil. Use a stencil on your card front, and then take it up a notch by embellishing it. I used foiling to embellish the stencil designs.
