Mixed Media Stencil - Burst

Rockstar Pets Stamp Set

Circle Foundation Dies

Raven Detail Ink

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!
