Place stencil 1, from the Quattro D Collection, on to the white card cut to 6 x 4". Lightly blend the Heather dye ink through the stencil, with your blending tool. Line up stencil 2 and blend again with the Heather but with a bit more pressure. Finally, line up stencil 3 and go back in with the Heather but with more pressure and loaded ink, to get a deeper tone of colour. |
Stamp the detailed stamp over your stencilled image, with the Midnight hybrid ink pad. |
|
Use the coordinating die to cut out your element. |
|
Place the die cut cake inside the embossing folder, run it through your machine, then pop it to one side. |
|
Ink up the debossed side of your Carnival folder, with the Iced Spruce Oxide and spritz with water. Place the white card, trimmed to 6 1/2 x 4 1/4", inside the folder, inked side on the top and run it through your machine. |
|
Blend the edges of the white card, trimmed to 6 3/4 x 4 1/2", with Heather. |
|
Adhere your embossed card on to the blended card and then on to your card blank, then pop to one side. |
|
Cut a piece of white card and place the "Special Birthday" detailed dies on top. Cut a piece of white card, big enough to fit the 2 layering dies, ink the card with Heather, then place the dies on top and run them all through your machine. |
|
Adhere the detailed sentiment die cuts on top of the die cut layers. |
|
Adhere the sentiments, with foam pads, to the front of your card. |
|
Finish off with a touch of sparkle, where required, using your Gossip clear sparkle pen. |
