Sunny with a Side of Sparkle Blog Hop Day 3: Stencils with Embossing Glitter

Welcome to the third day of our blog hop to celebrate the Sunny with a side of Sparkle Release!

A few bits of housekeeping…

Twisted Sunburst Stencil – this item is sold out, lickety split! We expect them back in stock by the first week of June, and we are allowing backorders. Your entire order will ship together when they are restocked.

Say it in Diamonds – is almost sold out. When our stock is depleted, we will not be taking back orders for this item. A restock is expect by mid-July. So if you have to have it, be sure to order it right away!

This video tutorial focuses on a stenciling technique, then a fun layered tag piece to spice up the simple card design.

To make this background, used a Versamark Pad over the stencil which gives a tacky Twisted Sunburst Stencil pattern on the white cardstock. Cover this with Singing in the Rain Embossing Glitter, tap off excess and heat.

You end up with a lovely tone-on-tone glittery image that is perfect for a simple card.

Next I grabbed the Happiness Enclosed Stamp Set and stamped the circle images in Lime Rickey and Flirty Fuchsia. I die cut these with my Spellbinder Machine, layered everything together with dimensional adhesive.

Then I stamped the little “Hello There” tag, cut it by hand and layered it on the circle. A little piece of twine tied in a bow added to the project with liquid glue and that is that!

The Happiness Enclosed is a darling set for personalizing your envelopes as well as using the various stamps on the front of your hand made cards.

Here are a few samples made with this stamp set, along with the World Awaits Stamp Set and the Love Word Die.

There's something about these patterned envelopes that makes me swoon!
