Stenciling techniques

Hello,

I am here for Craftyscrappers DT and have an easy stenciling tutorial. I have used 2 stencils from Craftyscrappers and the technique is super easy. I have a link to the video post as well.

Card 1

1. I took 4 different shades of gray colour inks from Altenew
2. I secured my stencil to the card stock.
3. Using ear buds, I started adding colour to the stencil. I went by randomly adding colour to give each design in the stencil highlights.
4. I stamped and coloured the butterfly
5. I die cut the stencilled piece and added the same to a circle vellum piece
6. I added the butterfly to the stencilled circle and stamped some little butterflies and sentiment.
7. To finish the card, I added some embellishments.

Tips

• Tracing paper can also be used as an alternative or vellum IF only being used for backgrounds.
• This technique using ear buds works well for stencil which has intricate design as well as large designs.
• Dye inks works best for this technique

Card 2

1. I secured the stencil to the cardstock
2. Since I am using colour pencils for this technique, I keep them sharp.
3. I chose rainbow colour and started randomly adding colour
4. Here, I used polychromos pencils
5. I took 2 shades of each colour for this technique.
6. Once I am done colouring, I added an oval die cut with a sentiment to the center of the card
7. To finish it, I added some half dull gold beads.

Tips

• Any colour pencil works for this technique
• Any stencil design works for this technique.
• Best technique for one-layer card

  

Card 3

1. For this card, I did regular stenciling using Altenew inks
2. I stamped my favourite image and coloured her.
3. When I fuzzy cut this image, I left some gap from the image and added a black outline using alcohol markers.
4. I added the sentiment and liquid pearls to finish the card.

Tip:

• Black stock can be used instead of alcohol markers as outline

• This technique is best for one-layer card.

I hope you all liked my card

Happy crafting
