Stencil Duos, Dreamweaver, and Tombow Sticky Stuff

Yes, once again we're mixing it up this week, and fortunately, it is all product that is perfect together! Yay! Here's what we've got going:

1. Dreamweaver Thursday. 2. New Release Stencil Duos. 3. Tombow's adhesive products.
Obviously, the first and second are a given together, and the third is pretty much a necessity in papercrafting, and the products that they carry work well for the heavier projects as well!

The card that I've created for today's post features the new Butterfly Duo set, and as you can see by the picture below, it comes with TWO stencils, a doodling pen, and a set of small cards. Perfect as a grab and go for a vacation or business trip where you might want to do a bit of creative fun, but don't want to haul EVERYTHING with you!

One of the stencil designs is an open shape, and the other is a pattern. They're awesome together or apart, and as you can tell by the packaging, you can add doodling to both! Here's what I've done...

Beginning with a My Colors Cardstock by MME Charcoal base, I've created a six-inch square, top-fold card. I've place the Dreamweaver Quatrefoil stencil over the surface, and taped in place with removable tape before using a large stencil brush to rouge Tuxedo Black Memento ink over the design for a tone-one-tone look.

Next, I used one of two panels of Rose Chintz canvas cardstock from MCC to ink stencil the pattern stencil from the Duo set over the panel using a large stencil brush and a mix of Lady Bug, Rose Red, and Tangelo Memento inks over the surface. I stamped one of the curved sentiments from the Perfectly Clear Thoughtful Wishes set in black ink toward the right in preparation for the butterfly wings. The panel was then adhered to the card front.

The first step of the butterfly was to paste-emboss the pattern design on the second panel of rose chintz  cardstock using Dreamweaver Matte Black Embossing Paste. The stencil was removed  carefully to be cleaned and dried, and the panel set aside to dry approximately 15-20 minutes. When dry, the pattern stencil was placed back over the surface, and VersaMark ink was daubed over the pasted area, and then sprinkled with Stampendous Kaleidoscope Embossing Powder. This was heated to melt the powder.

The butterfly design was placed over the panel, and traced with a black marker. The wings were cut out, and adhered to the card as shown using Tombow Foam Tape. Two strips of black ric rac were adhered across the bottom using the Tombow Glue Pen.
