It's Tuesday which means you've got Kathi here to share a project with you today! But before I get to this week's project, I'd like to remind you that Topflight Stamps has a great sale going on! You can get 25% off all stencils and there are loads of them!
This week the team's focus is on Red and Pink, which naturally makes me think of Valentine's Day! Here's my card created with the Jungle Animals Red Rubber Unmounted Stamp Set by Katzelkraft, Wild Hearts Clear Photopolymer Stamp Set by Katkin Krafts, Crea-Nest-Lies XXL Double Stitched Rectangle Die Set by CREAlies, Sun and Clouds 6x6 Stencil by Carla Creates/Vaessen Creative, and Baby Pink, Charming Pink, and StrawberryVersaFine Clair Inks by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko.
Here's the card!
Using a stamping platform, position the zebra and the rhinosaurus stamps from the Jungle Animals Red Rubber Unmounted Stamp Set by Katzelkraft facedown on a piece of white cardstock.
Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to ink the stamps. Stamp them twice — once onto the white cardstock and once onto repositionable sticker paper.
Use Copic markers to color both animals. Fussy-cut the sticker paper version of the animals and place them over their counterparts on the image panel as masks.
Place a piece of acetate horizontally across the image panel right above the zebra's posterior and the front paw. Brush Charming Pink VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko over the acetate onto the image panel to ground the zebra. Heat set the ink and place low-tack tape over the Charming Pink ground.
Use low-tack tape to secure the second largest die from the Crea-Nest-Lies XXL Double Stitched Rectangle Die Set by CREAlies facedown onto the image panel so that the animals are framed by the die. Run the die through a die-cut machine.
Keeping the image panel in the die, place the Sun and Clouds 6x6 Stencil by Carla Creates/Vaessen Creative towards the top of the image panel. Lightly brush Baby Pink VersaFine Clair Ink over the top edge of the stencil onto the image panel. Rotate the Sun and Clouds 6x6 Stencil, move it downwards, and brush Baby Pink VersaFine Clair Ink over the stencil and the masked images onto the image panel. Continue this process until the pink cloudy sky is complete.
Clean the stencil, remove the image panel die-cut from the die, and heat set the ink.
Position the image panel die-cut back onto the base of the stamping platform. Place the elongated heart stamp from the Wild Hearts Clear Photopolymer Stamp Set by Katkin Krafts facedown on the image panel between the masked animals. Ink the heart stamp with Strawberry VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp. Re-ink and stamp again if needed to attain a good impression.
Remove the image panel die-cut from the stamping platform and heat set the heart. Remove the masks from the animals so they can see each other again.
Create an A6 card from white cardstock. Heavily sponge Strawberry VersaFine Clair Ink around the outer .75" of the card. Heat set the ink then adhere the image panel die-cut to the card. Add white stickers to create the sentiments and finish the card.
