Hello September! School buses are running again, the weather is changing, my annual county fair is in the past. Hope you enjoyed the summer months! Sunflowers remind me of Fall. They are also one of my favorite flowers. Today the centerpiece of my card is the Sunflower and Dragonflies Art Stencil.
In addition to the Sunflower and Dragonflies Art Stencil The Eyes 1 Stamp, Learn from Yesterday sentiment and the Steampunk Romance: Digital Printable Papers were used!
Additional supplies used:
- Black Stamping ink
- Acrylic block
- Gold Wide tip Sharpie
- Cosmic Shimmer Graceful Mustard Glitter paste
- Lunar Paste Refined Copper
- Astro Paste Tropical Tango
- TCW Stencil Butter Olive (not pictured below)
- Spatula
- Water
- Paper towels
- Glass Dip pen and ink
- Deco Foil scrap
- Watercolor paper
- Paper Scraps
- Adhesive/dimensional foam/glue stick
Have you ever spent time glue paper scraps, it is one of my favorite pastimes. I use a watercolor paper pad to glue the scraps. It is very relaxing, and it doesn't have to be perfect! The paper this project is on is one of my "glue book" pages.
Print the Steampunk
Romance: Digital Printable Papers two sheets per page. This way you are able to shrink the size of the printed images. The eye image and sentiment were stamped on a couple of the papers.
On the watercolor "glue page" stencil the Sunflower and Dragonflies. The petals are Cosmic Shimmer Graceful Mustard Glitter paste. The sunflower center is Lunar Paste Refined Copper and the dragonflies Astro Paste Tropical Tango. Let each area dry before adding the next color.
Once the pastes were dry, it was time to add black ink with the glass pen.
You can see that the sunflower petals are outlined with the black ink. In the first picture above the outline was a single pen line. For the flower to really standout. a second pass was made with the glass pen, see the second photo above. All the gaps left by the stencil are filled in with the black ink.
The stamped eyes and sentiment are outlined with the glass pen. You can barely see the glass pen in the picture above. Then let everything dry before foiling and assembly.
Cut the paper to size, this is a 6 x 6 card. Edge the card front with a wide tip gold sharpie pen. To randomly apply the foil, gently swipe a glue stick and press the foil on it. Be sure not to apply too much glue stick or you want it to be splotchy and like peeled paint.
Mount the card front on a 6x6 card base. The stamped sentiment and eyes were adhered to the card with dimensional foam.
