Happy Easter Textured Card


I love trying out new techniques and I have been wanting to try this one out for a while, its texture paste with stencils!!! After digging through my stash of stencils (which was not many), I felt this one would be fun, I don't know the brand just know that it has a sticky backing. My first attempt was not so great but this one was much better, that's the joy of trying something new, you get better at it every time. 

Details
First,  I laid my stencil across a 4"x 5 1/4" white card font and using a pallet knife, I spend Texture paste across the entire stencil smoothing and scrapping off any excess. Then I let that dry.
Next, I inked rows of color using Distress Inks. 
I colored the images and fussy cut them out and popped up the eggs and bow with tiny pieces of fun foam. 
Lastly, I completed the card with some orange string as an embellishment. 


Supply List

Distress Inks - mustard seed, spiced marmalade, picked raspberry, evergreen bough & shaded lilac 
Texture Paste- transparent gloss by Ranger
stencil 
White card stock
orange string


Loved making this card and I will have to grow my collection of stencils to do more texture technique.   This came out so cute pictures don't show the fun pattern of texture. I think I will send this to my grandsons, then will love it. If you have never tried the technique I would recommend it, simple and beautiful results. 

Have a wonderful day and do what makes you happy (card making that is).
