Layering Stencils for Ink Blending | Save the Crafty YouTuber Video Hop

Hi everyone! Today I am back to share with you a card that I made for the Save the Crafty YouTuber video hop! The hop is at its fourth edition and it is meant both for creators to support each other and for viewers to discover new channels to find inspiration.
There are plenty of giveaways, including one on my own channel. Make sure to watch the video at the end of this post for more details!
You can also visit Justine’s blog for a list of all the videos, prizes, and later on for the winners announcement.

Background

For my background I started by die cutting some watercolor cardstock with the Heffy Doodle Imperial Stitched Rectangles. I then layered two different stencils and created a focal point. I used the Scallop Circle Masquerade stencil first, and I ink blended Distress Ink in Tattered Rose over the entire surface.
Without removing the first stencil, I layered the Heffy Doodle Brick by Brick stencil and blended Distress Ink in Abandoned Coral to create a brick wall effect.

Images

Next, I started working on my images. I used the Heffy Doodle Purr-fect day stamp set and for my coloring I used Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers. You can see part of the coloring process in the video, and here is the list of markers I used

Cats: BG7, BG5, BG3, BG1, CR2
Green: JG5, JG3, JG1
Yellow: GB4, LY3, LY1
Red: CR8, CR5, CR3
White: IG3, IG1


Once I was done coloring, I die cut everything with the coordinating dies.

sentiment and finishing touches

For my sentiment I used one of the stamps in the Purr-Fect Day stamp set. I created a banner with one of the dies in the Tag Along set and I stamped the greeting with LDRS Creative Snow White ink.
I glued everything on a top-folding A2 card base and I finished off the cards with some clear drops by Studio Katia

And that’s my card for today! Make sure to watch the video down below for more details on the Save the Crafty YouTuber hop and on how you can win a 25$ GC to Scrapbook.com!
