Make and Cher: One Layer Card

Hi There! I wanted to share a One-Layer card design using the Yeti & Penguin from the "Brewed with Love" clear stamp! :)

First, I stamped the image onto card stock. Then, I stamped the same image onto a post-it note to create a mask. I fussy cut the image on the post-it note using a swivel blade cutter.

Next, I used the circle die from the "Stitched in Circle" Die set and created a large circle stencil with regular printer paper.

Step-by-step instructions on creating the circle background:

1) Cover the stamped image on the card stock with the post-it mask, then overlay the circle stencil over the image.

2) Using a foam blender, apply Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink to the center of the image.

3) Using a foam blender, apply Peacock Feather Distress Oxide ink to the upper and lower parts of the circle. Keep applying the colors until desired color saturation.

4) Add/Spray water and quickly dab with a paper towel to get a speckle effect.

Now the fun part! The reveal after removing the stencil and the mask!

I felt the card needed a little bit more so I created a star stencil using printer paper and the little star from the "Mix it Up" die set. Placed the stencil where I'd like to have a star and used a foam blender to apply some Peacock Feather Distress Oxide ink.
