“Always Be” came to be after I got these great dies from Simon Says Stamp which make the shape look like it’s stitched! Gotta love it! I got three sets of shapes along with this stencil. I was looking at it and got inspired from the stencil and a tutorial from Stamp Nation about using textured paste! I think they had a different name for it, like embossing paste. Any whoo..
I created this sweet card with a Lili of the Valley stamp (the girl) and Close To My Heart D1627 Your own Kind of Wonderful. I used Ranger Textured Paste, a stencil, and a palette knife to create the background.
You put the stencil down over the area you want to cover. Smear the paste on with the palette knife. Lift the stencil up carefully. I covered with prisma glitter while it was wet. If you want to see more about this, see Stamp Nation’s tutorial.
I colored in the cute girl with ShinHan Touch Markers. Wink of Stella’ed the flower and butterfly. All cardstock is CMTH.
Added some pop up dots for both the sentiment and the little girl.
Don’t you just love the layers from the Nesting Die? I got them because of the stitching around the ends that I don’t have to do!! It makes for an awesome look!! I used 3 of them to create the layers on this card! CTMH paper works so well with all your crafting products. Be sure to try it out! =)
Thanks for stopping by!
