Back to share another make, this one being the card I made for a wonderful friend who turned 40 last month.
This was my first use of this stencil set by Birch Press, I love it!
I started with a die cut panel of white cardstock. First I stamped all the images in black ink, and left the stamps in my MISTI ready for restamping later. I stamped the WTF and the 40 onto post-it notes and cut these out to use as masks. The stencilling was next, building up the layers one by one using Distress Oxide inks. The masks were then removed and I restamped the images to sharpen up the black lines. I mounted the panel onto a card base using fun foam then added some shimmer to the white sections using a sparkle pen. I managed to pick up the sparkle in the next photo...
