Hello Brutus Monroe fans! Seems like I can't get enough of this
stamp set from:
Brutus Monroe Products Used:
I began my project by stenciling onto silver glitter card stock using the
Mixed Media Stencil - Burst and the Green Velveteen Glaze.
I used Pixie Spray on the stencil but I still had some glaze seep underneath. I was
able to lift most of it out with a small paintbrush and most of it was contained in the
middle area which I was going to cover up anyway. I set that off to the side to dry.
I gave it 4 hours to dry completely. Once it was dry I trimmed it to
4" x 5 1/4".
Using a matching green card stock I cut a circle 3 times for the center.
These circles measure 2 1/4". I glued them on top of one another and then cut
one out of green glitter card stock for the top. I adhered this circle in the center
of the stenciled area with a liquid adhesive.
Next I stamped my image out onto Neenah 80lb Classic Crest Solar White card stock
with the Raven Detail Ink.
I kept the coloring to a minimum.
Copic markers used:
Tongue/Nose: E04, R59
Face: E51, E31, E35, E37, E49
Headphones: C0, C1, C2, C3, C5, C7, Black
Bowtie: YG06
Collar: C2
I knew that I wanted to add Stickles to the bowtie, so I colored it green a bit
later. It gives a nicer look if there's color underneath. Once I finished the
coloring I fussy cut the image out.
I stamped the sentiment onto the same green yard stock that I used for my
A2 size card base and used a banner die to cut it out. I backed it with a small
scrap of the silver glitter card stock.
I adhered my green base layer, then my gentled layer and then added my
stamped images with foam tape.
I waited until last to apply Firefly Stickles. I know from experience if I put it
on too soon...I'll stick my finger in it! I also added a bit of shimmer pen
to the collar...it's subtle, but there.
And that completed my card for today!
I hope you enjoyed today's project! It was so much fun to make!
All that glitz and that dog!...too much!
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I appreciate your time
and your interest!
