Stencil Resist Tutorial

Hi friends! I hope you are well and had a good weekend. Today I have a sweet stencil resist tag to share with you.



We have a Resist It challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog this week. I hope you can join us! Don't miss the beautiful project by our February guest designer Estelle Palumbo.

I was in the mood for pink and red and made a tag with a heart theme. Even the stamping was done with only pink and red inks. The background was done with a stencil, white embossing and Distress Inks and is quick and easy.

I used the Simon Says Stamp Simple Duo stencils. There is also a star stencil in the set, which will work just as well. Apply embossing ink through the stencil with an ink-blending tool and white emboss the hearts. Always be very careful when using a heat tool and never touch the melted powder until it is completely cool. It is easy to line up the stencil to cover the whole surface. I left a few gaps where the hearts aren't embossed.

Ink the tag with Distress Inks. The embossing will resist the ink.

Smear two shades of Distress Oxide Ink on a non-stick craft sheet, mist with water and dab the tag into the ink. Just here and there. I only dab it and don't press it down, to just get some splots of Oxide Ink.

When dry, ink with Candied Apple through the stencil placing it so that you get hearts in between the white hearts.

Place the stencil back over the white hearts, but a offset it a little. Ink with Aged Mahogany to get a subtle shading.

Die cut the sentiment with the Simon Says Stamp You Matter die from heavystock paper and stamp with the Reverse Crackle Background stamp using red ink. This is a quick way of adding texture and color at the same time.

I gave the sentiment a coat of Glossy Accents and you can see the glossy effect here. The smaller sentiment was stamped with the Inside Friendship Messages and Teeny Bikini ink.

I like the mix of white and red hearts, in combination with the shades of pink and red in the background.

The vellum heart was die cut with the Simon Says Stamp Thinking of You Heart. I doodled a border with a white pencil and a white gel pen. I love the frosty look of the vellum.

The Detailed Leaf Cluster was die cut from white cardstock and glued to the background.
