Hi, Connie here with a couple of coffee cards using the Cup Overflow Border stencil by Clear Scraps. The 6" Holly stencil was used also but could easily be switched out for a Spring time leaf.
To create the background for the cards, S.E.I. Tumble Dye was sprayed on watercolor paper. Any spray paint, mist product will work to make a space for the coffee cup to be stenciled in the middle using modeling paste.
Tape the stencil down so you get a clean image when scrapping the modeling paste over the stencil. I use a pallet knife but an old credit card works well too.
At the corner of the cup use the 6" Holly or the 6" Twig Leaves to place a leaf and then use buttons to create a little flower embellishment. Stamp sentiment out and add twine.
The sentiment tag was created to resemble a hand stitched tag
(like what is in the back of a shirt).
So easy to change up the color combos and have bright colorful cards.
The completed cards were splattered with black acrylic paint, using a tooth brush. So easy to direct the splatter!!!
Products used:
Clear Scraps: Border Overflow stencil
Clear Scraps: 6" Holly
Other:
Watercolor paper, twine, buttons, Tumble Dye (for background), modeling paste, stamps and ink.
