Hello! It’s time for the November Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero and this month’s theme is “The Great Outdoors”. You can use anything from nature or an outdoor scene. I used a fun stencil technique with my pumpkins today.
1. Stencil the background of a 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” piece of white cardstock using the Brick Wall Stencil and Arctic Core Ink. wipe of the stencil but leave in place.
2. Pick up a very small amount of Gold Hero Paste with a palette knife and apply to select areas throughout the panel. Focus more around the edges since the pumpkin image will cover a lot of the center. set aside to dry.
3. Stamp the pumpkin image from the Pumpkin Bunch Bundle with Intens-ified Black Ink. Use the Pumpkin Bunch Color Layering Stencils to add color or color them with copic markers as I did. Colors are listed and linked below. Die cut with coordinating dies.
4. Stamp the sentiment with Embossing and Watermark Ink. Add Gold Embossing Powder and heat set. Though the image is already die cut, it may help to put it back in the cardstock to keep it in place while stamping.
5. Once dry, add the stenciled panel to an A2 card base. Next place stamped pumpkin over panel with thin foam squares.
6. Finish card by adding gold Smooth Disc Sequins across card with Precision Glue XL.
If you have the stencils for the pumpkin, it might be fun to add some Gold Hero Paste on the pumpkins.
