{ March 2016 Card Kit from Scraptastic Club–part 2 }

Hi! I have two more cards I created with the March card kit while I am waiting for the new one to arrive any day now. I have been using stencils on my cards quite often and I have recently moved them really close to my work area so that I can just open a drawer and they are all there. No more searching around for them. In addition, I keep my Whipped Spackle (my favorite modeling paste) near by, as well.

For this card I applied Liquitex Clear Gesso to the background. This provides the perfect "tooth" to the area, in this case, patterned paper. Once you add other mediums, like watercolor, it will not absorb into the paper. It stays on top and keeps it bright. Plus, it doesn’t soak through the paper. What I have at home is Liquitex Clear Gesso that I got at my local craft store. I applied Whipped Spackle using the triangle stencil that came in my March Drops Of Jupiter Kit.

For the second card I just layered the bits and pieces on top of patterned paper and added some stamped stripes from the stamp set. I sprinkled some color shine from my stash.
