Morning all!
I'm over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with some new projects.
I'm still trying to replenish my card basket ready for upcoming birthdays, so it's a perfect opportunity to make multiple designs with the same supplies.
For today's projects, I used the wonderful All Aglow layering stencil set from The Greetery.
I selected a rainbow of ink colours to work with and wondered how these colours would also look on a non-white background like pink for example...
Paper: Simple Stories - Dream Big (r)
Stamps: Concord & 9th - Make a Wish, The Greetery - Make a Wish
Stencils: The Greetery - All Aglow
Dies: The Greetery - Make a Wish, The Stamp Market - Fringe Borders
I completed all the stencil steps up to adding the wicks to the candles, but wanted to use a different style of flame for these candles. The flames in the stencil set add a circular glow, but I love the flame design of the candle in the Make a Wish set from Concord & 9th and happily found that those flame stamps fit perfectly.
I used the sparkler elements from The Greetery's Make a Wish stamp set to fill in the white space - it's a really subtle look on the pink card with that tone-on-tone stamping.
When it came to assembling my cards, I really didn't want to cover up too much of those lovely candles. The Make a Wish stamp set that coordinates with the All Aglow stencils features some great sentiments, including the large Make a Wish sentiment.
I stamped this on white cardstock and cut it out with the matching shadow die. By chopping a bit off the top of this background, I was able to centre the Make a Wish sentiment and add some fun details at the bottom.
Stamps: Concord & 9th - Make a Wish, The Greetery - Make a Wish
Stencils: The Greetery - All Aglow
Dies: The Greetery - PreText Banners, The Stamp Market - Fringe Borders
For the pink card, I simply stamped the sentiments from the Make a Wish stamp set on the PreText Banners, using selective inking to omit the ampersand at the end of one of the sentiments to get the word order I wanted.
And there we have it, two different looks that started out in exactly the same way.
Until next time, happy crafting!
