I have been practicing a lot lately with stencils and blending brushes. I love the gradient looks you can get. I tried what I call double layer blending. It was perfect for this Valentine card!
For this card, I first lightly blended Merry Merlot, Rococo Rose and Blushing Bride onto a white panel. Next, I laid my Taylored Expressions Mini Slim Cable Knit stencil over and added more of the same colors. The panel was then cut with a mini slim stitched rectangle die. The hearts are from Stampin’ Up!’s Stitched Be Mine dies. I hand wrote the word “love” with a black pen and added a few rhinestones for a bit of bling.
Have you tried double layer blending with stencils? I’ve got a few more ideas in the works with this. Thanks for stopping by! Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!
