Hello Everyone, Jen here today to share with you an stencil overlay ‘on the fly’ Thank you card.

This will be my last post and I wanted to express my gratitude for this wonderful opportunity to share my creations with the Crafter’s Workshop community.

Times when you need a thank you card and store bought ones just won’t do, this is a super fun and easy way to design your own with more style and personality!

Supplies needed:

• Acrylic paint
• Foam brush
• Stencils: TCW601 Poppy Field, TCW630 Chickadee Post, and TCW 508S Flow Chart.
• White gel pen
• Scissors
• Paper: water color or cardstock

Step 1: Place stencil design over paper and paint. Here I started with TCW601 Poppy Field in Turquoise.

 

Step 2:

Adding magenta over the first layer, let dry before moving on to the next step.

Two tones of turquoise & magenta

Step 3: Stencil overlay:

slightly shift the stencil over to one side of your paper, then overlay another color of paint here I used gold.

Step 4: While this layer is drying  move on to another small sheet of paper/card stock.

I painted my background with a high gloss black, while tracing the bird design from TCW630 Chickadee Post with a white gel pen.

Then I decided to add more detail inside the bird with the white gel pen.

I then cut the bird out and moved on to using TCW 508S Flow Chart to trace out design and write the words Thank you inside.

Step 5: I then went back over my first layers with my white gel pen to outline the poppies.

I then placed the cut out bird design and the Thank you bubble and secured it on my card to finish the design.

Hope you enjoyed this!

Cheers,

Jen
