Place your stencil on the shiny side of a piece of freezer paper |
Tape down the stencil with removable tape |
Use the paste spreader to apply Dreamweaver Matte Yellow Embossing Paste |
Remove and clean your stencils, let the paste dry |
Tape your clean, dry stencil back over the dry paste |
Use small stencil brushes and ink pads to add color use the Picasso (LL332) to create veins |
Remove and clean the stencil |
Repeat the coloring steps for each design |
LS78-Maple leaf, LG728-Blowing leaves LL3004-Falling leaves, LG616-Leaf texture |
Carefully peel your pasted image off the freezer paper |
Transfer it where you think you want it |
You are still able to move it around at this point to try it out around your design |
Complete your layers and use Tacky Glue to add your leaf embellishments! |
Here's a close up! |
Remember, when you pick your stencil design, it has to be a complete image for this technique to work (no bridges, just open area). I think the Cat watch stencil (LM266) would be awesome done in black paste (matte or glossy) and used as a black cat embellishment on a Halloween card!
