You are Loved | Photo Tutorial

Hello everyone!
I'm back to share my second card that I made for my DT post at Pretty Paper Studio. I shared one card earlier HERE, incase you have missed seeing it.
I'm sharing the second one today with a step by step tutorial on how I made it. Here's a look at both the cards.


And the second card!

TUTORIAL

Step 1 – I started with a piece of White cardstock measuring 4 1/4 inches by 5 and a 1/2 inches and I decided to create a stenciled background using The Crafter’s Workshop- Mini Cubist stencil & Distress ink- Hickory Smoke using the Ranger Mini Round Ink Blending Tool. I created some splatters on my card using the Heidi Swapp Color Shine- Rose Mist.

Step 2 – Once the background was created, I again stamped the flowers and the foliage using the Paper Smooches Clear Stamps 4″X6″ – Botanicals 3 stamp set. I stamped my flowers using 2 colours of ink- Cotton Candy from the Altenew Four Scoops ink set and Papertrey Ink Pure Poppy Ink. The leaves were stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink. These were all fussy-cut. 

Step 3 – I used the Cheery Lynn- Anastasia border die to die-cut a border from Black CS, and added a strip of that pretty Washi Tape to my card base to anchor my floral arrangement. These flowers and leaves are all popped up on foam dots to give them a bit of dimension.


Step 4 – For the sentiment, I went for the Simon Says Stamp – Expressions for You stamp and die set. I  die-cut that ‘You’ using black cardstock and the ‘are loved’ is stamped. I distressed the edges of the piece using Altenew Cotton Candy ink pad.

Step 5– A complete look of the card. I mounted it on a white card base whose edges I had colored using Altenew’s Cotton Candy ink so that a hint of the pink shows through the all four sides!

Bazzill Cardstock 12×12″ Classic White
