Instructions 

Step 1: Start with a piece of White Cardstock, Spiced Marmalade and Fired Brick Distress Oxide Spray. Spray the two colors onto the cardstock, keeping most of the color towards the top ¾ of the card panel. Let that dry.

Step 2: Using the Make Art Stay-tion, place the Leafy Stencil over the top ¾ of the card and apply the Texture Paste. Set aside to dry completely, or use a heat tool to dry it quicker.

Step 3: Stamp the sentiment “Miss You” from the Occasions Stamp set with Clear Embossing Ink onto White Cardstock. Sprinkle on Black Embossing Powder and heat until melted. Trim down the sentiment strip and use scissors to cut flag end.

Step 4: Take the stenciled background and spray (very lightly) with Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Spray. Once dry, trim the piece down about 1/2” on all sides.

Step 5: Mat the stenciled background with a piece of Black Cardstock and adhere that to a white A2 size card base. Add the sentiment with Foam Adhesive for dimension.
