Steps To Create This Card

1. First, I created an A2-sized card base with Dove White cardstock but cutting an 8.5” x 11” sheet in half long ways and scoring one piece in half.

2. Then, I stamped the little girls stamp onto some copy paper and fussy cut it out with scissors to create a mask.

3. Next, I stamped the same image onto the front of my card base with Intensified Black Ink and covered it up with the mask.

4. Then, I coved the card base with the Frayed Edge Masking Stencil. I tore the edge of a piece of Post-It tape to match the frayed style and masked off the bottom of the stencil opening about half-way up.

5. After that, I blended three colors of ink up from the bottom of the stencil to create an ombré background.

6. Next, I colored in the image with blue, yellow, orange and skin-tone Copic markers.

7. To finish off the card, I stamped a sentiment on the right with Intensified Black Ink.
