You’re Always in my Heart – Layered Stamping

Hi Artsy Friends,

Happy Chinese Lunar New Year, the Year of Tiger. 

It’s time to play along with Happy Little Stampers Stencil Challenge again. The February Challenge Theme remains to be Anything Goes.  

For Challenge Rules and other DT’s inspirations, please check out the Challenge Blog. Please join us for the fun. I can’t wait to see what you have come up with.  

This month I played with DIY stencil again and revisited Layered Stamping. Hope my card is inspirational to you. Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day.

Card Details

1. Die cut a card panel. Use the die cut as a stencil and apply dye inks to make two background panels at once. I used the right one for this card.

2. Stamp Sunflower Daisy and leaves using Layered Stamping Techniques. Apply Clear Wink of Stella on flower and leaves and die cut.

3. Stamp sentiment in black on radiant heart background panel. Assemble the card as shown. The sparkly daisy and leaves are just stunning.

(Stamps and dies are all by Altenew.)

XOXO- Negative Diecut Stenciling

Hi Artsy Friends,

Following my previous card, I quickly made this one. I definitely love making two background panels at once. Even though it’s a quick card, I challenged myself to make a DIY glitter paper by Glitter Ritz. I just hope you can see the pink sparkly second layer heart.

Hope it’s eye-pleasing to you. Thanks for stopping by and have a sparkly day.

You Make My Heart Smile- Layered Stenciling

Hi Artsy Friends,

I feel stressed yet delighted during the Chinese Lunar Year Holiday period. I’m sure you know what I mean as this is similar to Christmas Holiday in western countries. It’s February and the Valentine’s Day is coming. To release my stress, I decided to make a CAS card today. 

Hope my card is eye-pleasing to you. Thanks for stopping by and have a sweet day.
