Thinking of You

Gina K recently did a video on different Bokeh techniques using stencils.  I decided to try my hand at it, and this card is one of the results!

I used the following to make the card:

• Gina K Designs - Autumn Silhouettes stamp set
• Gina K Designs - Fizzy Stencil
• Gina K Designs - Lucky Clover, Ocean Mist, Turquoise Sea, Wild Wisteria, Black Onyx inks
• Gina K Designs - Masking Magic strips
• Gina K Designs - Master Layouts 2
• Altenew - Beautiful Inside stamp set

To make the card I cut a white piece of paper with the stitched rectangle from Master Layouts 2.  The black mat was cut using the larger rectangle from the same set.  On the white piece of paper, I placed 1/2 inch masking strips along the edges.  Using the stencil, I added the various inks. The stencil was removed, and using a blending brush, the area was lightly inked.  The masking strips were removed and the silhouette was stamped.  The sentiment was added next.  The panel was then added to the blackmat and the entire piece to the card base to complete the card.
