This month is all about nostalgia! I used elements from both the Classic Kit and the Premium Kit to create my card today.
From the Premium Kit I used the additional scene die cuts but that holographic paper is amazing isn’t it?! No matter which kit you get to me they all screamed SCENE so that’s what we’re making today!
I started by stamping my bicycles and balloons before moving on to the die cutting. Each image element had it’s own die plus I cut out a few extra clouds. The die cut scene was cut out of white since I knew I’d be adding lots of coloring.
I ink blended my white card front using a light hand and the super fun stencil included in the kit. I also blended on some green to my die cut panel in both the grass and tree areas. I then went to work with my copic markers adding LOTS of grasses as well as shading to the tree, bench, and swing. I did go into the bicycles and balloons to add a bit of shading as well.
The sentiment was heat set in white over the open grass area and then I added a bit of a shadow to help it stand out. After adhering everything flat I also added a bit of clear lacquer for some shine.
You can see the entire process in the video below.
While we’re on the scene (haha) with scene building my add on card has some too but even easier!
I used a few different blues along with the Cloud Layering Stencil to create this monochromatic card. It was so easy and it comes out beautiful! This stencil behind one of the die cut scenes from the Premium kit would be amazing!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Your next stop n the hop is the amazing Libby Hickson.
