MIXED MEDIA BIRTHDAY CARDS/THE CRAFTER'S WORKSHOP

Hi everyone! I'm excited to share how I created these pretty mixed media cards using the TCW2302 Star Sparkle Slimline stencil and stencil butters. They are super simple and fun to make!

To begin, I used my Sizzix to cut out two card panels using metal dies.

Next, I placed the card panel onto a sticky mat from Brutus Monroe and then placed the stencil over the card. These mats are awesome and if you don't have one, you may want to grab one. Click here to shop at Brutus Monroe through my affiliate link. The product number for the mat is BRU7920. The price you pay is not higher, I may get compensated for promoting their product.

Then, I used a palette knife to add a dab of stencil butter down the stencil. I used Champagne GoldFuchsia, and Terre Verte

After that I used the palette knife to spread the stencil butter across the card. I blended the colors together a little bit.

And now the fun part...carefully lifting the stencil to reveal the gorgeous shimmery stars! I waited until the stencil butter was completely dry before adding a few embellishments with foam squares and glue. Then I adhered the card panel to an A2 card base.

What do you think? I just love how pretty these look with the stencil butter! I honestly cannot wait to make a few more!

I hope I inspired you today! Thank you so much for visiting!
