Light Up the World with Tracey

Hi there it’s Tracey here today hoping to bring you a smile when there is so much going on in our world. Today I have a card using the very cute Paws for Kindness stamps and dies!

I stamped the girl with the cat and dog and coloured the images with Copic Markers. The image was die cut using the co-ordinating dies and set aside.

I prepared the main panel by die cutting the Scallop Honeycomb Cover from white cardstock. Before I stenciled the panel I taped down to my craft mat with Purple Tape so it wouldn’t shift underneath the stencil. I placed the Love for Paws Stencil over the panel and taped it down to my craft mat also with Purple Tape . Using the Studio Katia blending brushes I blended Distress Oxide inks inside the stitched border starting at the bottom of the panel and worked towards the top. I used Broken China and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks.

The sentiment was added to the top of the panel using the Paws for Kindness stamp set. The top line ‘light up the world with’ was white embossed and then die cut using one of the new banner dies from the Studio Katia Peony Trimmings die set.

I covered the card front with a piece of blue cardstock that co-ordinated with the stenciling. Then the Scallop Honeycomb Cover was attached using Studio Katia doubled-sided white foam tape. To finish off the card I attached the girl with the cat and dog also with the doubled-sided white foam tape.

I think the sentiment created with the Paws for Kindness stamp set is very appropriate with all that is going on in the world today. This one will go out to a friend that needs a hug during this time of social distancing. Thank you so much for joining me today. Wishing you all good health and happiness.
