Hello, crafty friends! I'm back with a video for Taylored Expressions and this time I'm featuring the Stencil Strips - Holiday freebie promo with the adorable Merry Millie stamp set and coordinating dies from the latest holiday release.
You can get six stencil strips free with any $100 purchase! These are so much fun to use and I have lots of tips and tricks to share with you in this video.
I made two holiday cards using three of the Stencil Strips - Holiday, combining them with other Taylored Expressions masking stencils and blender brushes. First, I stamped the images with Oreo ink, then coloured them with Copic markers and all of the colours I used are listed in the supply links below. I die cut them and set them aside while I created the backgrounds.
On this first card, I used the 'Joy' word stencil and the polka dot stencil with the Masking Stencil - Rectangles and Clouds Stencil Strips. I used Salt Water Taffy, Confetti Cake and Cookie Monster inks to create an ombre effect with the 'Joy' stencil. Then I created a light snowfall and snow hills with Sea Salt ink.
I stamped the sentiment on an angle to follow the stencilled 'Joy' words and attached the Sugar Cube panel to a Watermelon card base. To finish, I popped the images on to the stencilled panel with Foam Sticky Circles. I just love this adorable image of Millie trying to hang too many ornaments on her reindeer friend's antlers!
To create the ombre forest of trees in the snowy field outside, I used the evergreen trees from the Stencil Strips - Holiday freebies with Lime Zest, Peapod and Cilantro, with the darkest shade at the bottom of the window. To finish, I used neutral gray Copic markers to create shadows for Millie and Santa, and adhered the panel on a Cookie Monster card base.
Thanks so much for watching!
