Thank You | Hero Arts Stamps, dies and stencil

Hey crafty friend! I’m sharing a fun Thank-You card featuring stamps, dies, and a stencil from Hero Arts. 

I ink-blended the Peonies Bunch color layering stencil over the stamped image in yellow tones. Then, I used the Color Layering Hummingbird stamp and finally, I created the background by ink blending the edges of pink cardstock and stamped the Script Bold Prints cling stamp with white pigment ink.

Years ago, I learned a shortcut to create quick and easy backgrounds and I still use this technique in my cardmaking today. I simply use a colored panel of cardstock and ink blend to add depth and interest in my backgrounds.

For this card, I die cut a piece of pink cardstock and ink blended a cloud stencil using Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink. Next, I added splatters with diluted white acrylic paint and left the panel to dry.

Once the panel was dry, I used a stitched rectangle die to trim the panel, stamped the sentiment, and added my butterflies with foam adhesive. And that’s it.

Making beautiful handmade cards does not have to be time-consuming, it can be stunning and quick at the same time.
