Stenciled backgrounds are a quick way to make a big impact with your handmade cards. This Abstract Circles Stencil is a craft room must-have.
Meghan has designed a beautifully blended ombre effect on her card for us today. We are really enjoying the extra splatters and details added that take this simple project to the next level. Meghan said, “I’m so excited to share Brass & Bliss NEW Release! This release is filled with gorgeous stencils, dies, and stamps. Today, I am showing off the NEW Dot Dash Nested Rectangle Dies 5302-03D and NEW Abstract Circles 6×6 Stencil 4403.” We truly love this design and hope you enjoy seeing how we use the abstract circles stencil to make the perfect ‘friend’ card.
Step #1: I started my card by using the Abstract Circles Stencil with Brass & Bliss Blending Brushes and Color Fuse Ink #9. Then I splattered it with white Copic Paint and the Whisper Ink.
Step #2: I die cut my stenciled background with the Brass & Bliss Dot Dash Nested Rectangle Die and mounted it on dark teal cardstock.
Step #3: I used the same dark teal cardstock to die cut the shadow of the Friend Script with Shadow 5406-04D then cut the word friend from white cardstock. Then, I stamped the “I cherish our friendship” sentiment from Brass & Bliss Kitty Says Friends 3327 onto the Brass & Bliss Nested Tag Dies 5704D.
Step #4: I finished my card by mounting my sentiment tag off to the right and Friend Die overlaying the edge. Then I added small enamel dots in the corners for extra texture.
