MAGIC BACKGROUNDS JUST WITH STENCILS

Posted on August 15, 2016 in Cards, Recent Works, Techniques, Tutorials

Stencils can be your best friend at the moment to create any project. You can find these in different patterns and designs but the best part about this is that you can completely transform any creation with the use of only one stencil. Today I want to share with  you a card that I created using an exclusive stencil  design by Rebecca Baer Inc. the Moroccan Tile & Vine ST-8004 Medium Size sprayed with some colors of Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels .

In today’s project I used only three colors of Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels to transform a piece of card stock. The colors of Glimmer Mist that I used were Pink Poodle, Dragonfly and Golden Orange.

I used the Moroccan Tile & Vine Stencil from Rebecca Baer Ink and secured it over a piece of card stock, then I sprayed with Glimmer Mist. I removed the stencil and washed it with water. Then I pasted the sprayed layer over the card base and decorated the left side with a few loops of natural bakers twine.

To complete the decoration I added some letters created with White Makin’s Clay® and the Alphabet Cutter Set also from Makin’s Clay®. I pasted the letters over the card using the 3 in 1 Advanced Craft Glue from Beacon®.

The possibilities are endless when you use a stencil – you move it around the paper and modify the original design of the pattern. You can also use it partially over the paper or you can do what I do: use just the part that you prefer over the paper. Just keep in mind that the life of your stencil depends on how you take care of it and water will be your best friend in the majority of cases. For me, the magic word is stencil in a lot of my creations!

Here is other sample using Stencils with spays and clay that you can see HERE in my blog. In this ATC’s I used the Enchanted Vine ST-8001 Medium also from Rebecca Baer Inc.
