Simon Says: Blog Hop!

SSS_2014MothersFathersBloghop

Blog Hop time! Simon Says Stamp has a new batch of products – and I’m excited to share with you projects featuring a mom stencil and a dad stencil.

For this card, I put gel medium on the backwards side of the stencil (aka the side of stencil I’d want to “stamp”), and then sprayed with dylusions mists.

Then I pressed onto cardstock – what this did was to create a textured background – love the look!

My other stencil was a dad one. For this I placed the stencil on kraft cardstock and covered with a heavy layer of white paint. Then I removed the stencil and sprayed a load of Dylusions. LOVE this technique! texture, color, and quick too.
