simon says stamp falling in love

Looking for a clean, simple and quick card design? I've got one to show you with the Simon Says Stamp Falling in Love stencil!

I started by placing a piece of low-tack tape on the bottom of a white card panel as a mask. Then I used a blending tool to apply Distress Oxide Saltwater Taffy to the unmasked section.

Immediately after (I didn't want the Saltwater Taffy ink to dry too much), I placed the Falling in Love stencil over the panel and applied Distress Oxide Picked Raspberry ink through it. Since the Saltwater Taffy wasn't dry, the Picked Raspberry blended with it a bit for a soft & dreamy look. For a sharper look, I could have let the Taffy blending dry completely before stenciling.

Then I removed the stencil & tape and stamped a sentiment from the Circle Sentiments set. The final touch was a little faux splatter made by dotting a few black pens around.

By the way, this adorable stencil also coordinates with foil transfer cards for really cool techniques! I'm planning to try that next.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
