Collettes Cards

I have a new love, playing with stencils and I love that Kasiercraft have a wonderful range of smaller stencils for cardmakers! There is so much fun to be had with them. Here is one of my recent cards, I do love white on white with a simple wash of colour here and there. I hope you like it to.

A super easy and quick card ….. really!!! I love how it looks do you? I took some smooth white card (CD650), popped the whole template on the card and spread texture paste all over, just before I went to bed. In the morning it was dry and I cut the four designs apart and selected the design I wanted to work on. I swiped Kaisercraft ink pads over the card in a diagonal design and while the ink pads were out, I coloured the little wooden butterfly. I splashed a few drops of candy pink Kaiser Mist  and a generous spritz of white Kasier Mist …. just because I love getting messy! I simply finished the card with Kaiser flowers, and a layer of cheesecloth! Then I washed my messy hands lol!!

I decided to do a mixed media background, they are fun to do, a wee bit messy and the good news is you don’t make any mistakes – anything goes! I die cut the wonderful ‘Mixed Media Circles’ Die (DD786), and popped it down on a 3 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ piece of white card. I used a palette knife to spread some texture paste on top. I then removed the die cut, (popped it aside for another project!), and waited for my texture paste to dry, (you could use a heat gun, but I had dinner to organise!). Once dry, I gently rubbed some Kaisercraft stamp pads on the design and  random stamped some words so they blended into the background. I then splattered with Kaisercraft paint – it got everywhere  but was surprisingly therapeutic lol!! At this stage I loved how it looked and stopped the messy stuff and assembled the card with papers and collectables from ‘High Tide’.
