Hi card-making friends; today is the Alex Syberia Designs NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP and GIVE AWAY. I’m sharing a Grateful For You Stenciled Card created with three new Grateful For You products from this release. The 6 x 8 stamp set, the coordinating dies and the stencil.

These are beautifully designed, and the stencils fit perfectly over the stamp image, making creating beautiful cards easy without spending hours coloring. I have really come to love these stencils, and it’s fun to use blending brushes to add multiple layers of ink for some beautiful effects.

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. I’ve included my full disclosure below.

Products Used:

Grateful For You Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies

Grateful For You Stencil.

Pinkfresh Inks: Sparkling Rose, Sunshine, Apricot, Ocean Breeze, Grassy Knoll

Memento Black Ink.

Waffle Flower Grip Mat

How to create the Grateful for You Stenciled Card:

Start with a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Hammermill White cardstock. Using the Misti, stamp the image in Memento Black Ink.

Next, place the cardstock into the center of the Waffle Flower Grip Mat and lay the stencil over. Secure the stencil and start adding ink with medium sized blending brushes.

I started with the yellow, then added the pink and where they overlapped it turned light orange. I used the Apricot ink to brighten the orange slightly.

Then, use Ocean Breeze and Grassy Knoll for the leaves. Die cut the piece out with the coordinating die.

Creating the Background:

Place the die cut piece onto the card front and lightly mark some points with a pencil.

Use the stencil, and position it about 1/2 inch above where the top flower mark is and stencil the image, slightly lighter than the original piece.

Next, do the same thing with the leaves on the left and right, and the stems at the bottom. This will give you “background noise”, behind your art piece.

Then, use foam squares to attach the art piece to the card front. Splatter with watered down Ocean Breeze Ink.

Finally, stamp a sentiment in black ink on a scrap of white, die cut and attach to the bottom left of the card.

Now it’s time to hop and check out the rest of the inspiration created by the design team: If you get lost along the way, here is the complete list of hoppers. Enjoy!
