Daisy Background Card

Hello crafters! Today I have a card to share with a bright daisy background, made with a stencil set.

I used Simon Says Stamp Mosaic Petals stencil set for this card and had an idea of creating a background filled with white daisies. At first, I planned for it to be green, but then I went with blue instead. You can do the technique with many types of stencils, it doesn't have to be a stencil set. The Mosaic Petals stencil set comes from the You Are My Favorite Release. 

Start with various petal stencils one at a time. Apply embossing ink and white emboss. Continue with the next stencil. Remember to line them up. Be careful when heat embossing and never touch the melted powder until it has cooled down completely. I used Ranger's Heavystock cardstock as my base.

When you have white embossed all the petals, use Mustard Seed Distress Oxide ink for the centers and the tiny dots. Emboss with clear powder. The embossing will protect the yellow shade in the next step. 

Ink with Distress Ink, starting with the lightest shade. The embossing will resist the ink.

Die cut the Simon Says Stamp Petal Tipped Labels from Neenah Solar White cardstock and Simon Says Stamp Ice Vellum. Stamp a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Mandala Blossoms with Cobalt ink and stamp the butterflies with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink.

I also added Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Dazzling Prism Gems. By clear embossing the yellow ink, it will stay white. If you don't emboss it, the ink will blend with the blue shades and turn green.

I used some old lace and fibers and stapled to the card. 

The label was adhered with Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Perfect Foam Tape.

Here you can see the shine of the embossing better.

I hope you enjoyed this stencil resist techniques and will try it on other stencils too. 

Thank you for visiting! See you again tomorrow!

Happy crafting!
