Hello- Stenciling with Embossing Paste and Alcohol Inks

 

Hi Artsy Friend,

It’s time to play along with Happy Little Stampers StencilChallenge again. The April Challenge Theme is once again Anything Goes.     

No matter if your project style is CAS, Mixed Media, …, as long as it involves stencils, you’re welcomed to join. For Challenge Rules and other DT’s inspirations, please check out the Challenge Blog. The Theme has endless possibilities, so please do join us for the fun.

This month I challenged myself to use a black card base which I rarely did. It’s also the first time I tried adding alcohol inks to embossing paste, thanks to the inspirations from Stunningly Styled Stencils online class of Altenew Academy.  I kind of like how it turns out. The following is how I made my card. Hope it’s eye-pleasing to you as well. Thanks for stopping by.

Card Details

1. Apply White Embossing Paste over stencil on a black card base. 

2. When done, drop Ranger Alcohol Inks (Wild Plum, Aqua, Meadow) randomly on Embossing Paste, then use an art knife to spread out the colors.

3. Let dry. Clean stencil and art knife immediately.

4. Die cut text on white card stock three times. Stack them together to create depth.

5. Adhere text and some sequins on black card base. Mount it to a white card. Voila! 

*stencil, text die, and embossing paste are by Altenew.
