Peaceful Pines Create in Quads

Hey friends, how are you? I made these cards back in November, but I never got round to sharing them, as I hadn’t edited the accompanying Reel! Anyway – here they are!

To start, I ran one of the Peaceful Pines Foil-Its through my laminator on the hot setting. I placed it in a folded piece of baking paper, with some Silver Fab Foil over the top to foil the panel, and it turned out beautifully.

I then used the co-ordinating Peaceful Pines layered stencils to add colour to the panel. I used my blender brushes to add Sea Glass, Aqua Sky and Dove dye inks from Concord and 9th (one colour for each stencil). 

I used the Waffle Flower grip mat to hold my cardstock and stencils in place – it’s been a bit of a game changer in my craft room! It wipes clean really easily, too.

After I’d finished the first three stencils, I applied Midnight ink around the edges of the card, and then added white pigment ink through the final stencil to create the snow.

For my sentiments, I used Taylored Expressions’ Winter Wishes stamp set, and heat embossed the sentiments in Wow’s polished silver embossing powder (the shiniest silver I’ve ever known!). I then fussy cut them, and added them to my cards with foam squares.

Finally, I added the card panels to A2 card bases with foam tape.

I can’t get enough of the Create in Quads stencils by @tayloredexpressions – they’re such a quick way of making multiple cards at once! For this set of cards, I used the TE Foil-It panels along with the stencils, and added @WOW embossing Powder silver foil. All the details are on my blog! #asmr #craftasmr #craft #crafting #cardmaking #papercraft #crafttok #tayloredexpressions #wowembossing #foiling #stencilling #cardmaker #christmascards
