For the "Happiness" release, I crafted a vibrant trio of cards using the Modern Rug stencil Modern Rug stencil set. My assignment was very similar to last month's. I was working with this fun background stencil set and I had to explore the possibilities of using it. Selecting the perfect color palette was crucial again. I choose ink colors, that work together well. On this stencil the colors don't overlap each other, so you don't blend them together, they just sit next to each other, creating a full background, like a modern rug.
This was the first background I made. The colors are in the order :
Stencil 1: Bay Leaf
Stencil 2: Mimosa
Stencil 3: Spanish Moss
Stencil 4: Limoncello
Stencil 5: Sunkissed
I ink blended lightly as I want to adhere some lovely florals on top, and this way it won't be too busy. I die cut the panel using the second
largest Folk Edge rectangle die, so it has a lovely white frame with the card base. I adhered the panel to the cardbase using foam tape.
I stamped and heat embossed the Be Fearless
flowers with white embossing powder. To watercolor the flowers, I used
Pinkfresh premium inks in Spanish Moss and Mimosa. I dabbed the inks on my
glass mat, added some water, and picked up the colors with my brush. I stamped
three sentiments directly on the panel with Mimosa ink. The main sentiment is
stamped with Spanish Moss and adhered with foam tape.
Using a craft knife, I cut a few slits in the panel to tuck
the flowers and leaves behind. I splattered some Mimosa ink for added effect
(though it got a bit messy 😜).
Creating the second card was basically the same process, but I changed up the colors and the design a little bit.
Stencil 1: Sage
Stencil 2: Sky Blue
Stencil 3: Limoncello
Stencil 4: Ocean Breeze
Stencil 5: Mint
The third card had a bit darker, because I applied them with more pressure, and also more contrast.
Stencil 1: Sunkissed
Stencil 2: Ocean Breeze
Stencil 3: Citron
Stencil 4: Summer Shower
Stencil 5: Mimosa
I wanted to give a modern feel to it, and my idea was to cut some of the rectangles and raise them with foam tape. I added the leftover flowers and stamped the sentiment directly on the cardpanel.
I made a Reel creating these cards and you are going to see them soon, first at Pinkfresh IG channel, and later on mine as well.
