Caribbean Boat Card - Stencils Unleashed: Advanced Stencil Techniques - AECP Level 3

Hi Everyone, today I am sharing with you my second completed AECP Level 3 – Stencils Unleashed: Advanced Stencil Techniques Card. 

The course demonstrated how to expand your crafting techniques and take your stencils to the next level. It was such an informative class and Nicole provided so many advanced techniques for using stencils. For today's card I used the Stencil Stacking Technique and created a Nautical Scene.

First I trimmed navy cardstock and adhered it onto the card front using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. I ink blend through the Altenew Caribbean Life Layering Stencil using the Altenew Blue Mountains Fresh Dye Ink and created a sea scene.

Following on from this I ink blend through the Altenew Caribbean Life Layering Stencil using the Altenew Coffee Break Espresso Crisp Dye Ink and created a beach scene.

I then stacked the Altenew Dotted Waves Stencil onto the Altenew Caribbean Life Layering Stencil and ink blend through the stacked stencils using Gold Pigment Ink. I just love the beautiful texture it created for the beach.

Tip: Plan ahead the order in which you want to use the stencils for the Stencil Stacking Technique.

Following on from this I created clouds and ink blend through the Altenew Caribbean Life Layering Stencil using the Altenew Blue Mountains Fresh Dye Ink.

I then stacked the Altenew Fine Tulle Stencil onto the Altenew Caribbean Life Layering Stencil and ink blend through the stacked stencils using the Altenew Blue Mountains Fresh Dye Ink. This is just a wonderful way to stretch the use of your stencils.

Following on from this I die-cut cardstock with the Altenew Seas The Day Boat Die and ink blend the die-cut using the Altenew Blue Mountains Fresh Dye Ink.

I then placed the Altenew Deco Wallpaper Stencil onto the die-cut and ink blend through the stencil using Gold Pigment Ink.

Following on from this I die-cut the Altenew Happy Holidays Script Die Set once with gold and then with navy cardstock to create a shadow effect sentiment. 

To finish I used the Altenew Stampwheel and stamped the Altenew Sohcahtoa Birthday Sentiment Stamp. I heat embossed it, adhered it onto the card front using 3D foam dots and added some sequins.

I will share more of my projects from the AECP as I work my way through the courses so stay tuned for more cardmaking posts!
