Team Tuesday with Kia

 It is Kia here with you today to share this card that I did for this week's Team Tuesday. It has been ages since I have used stencil paste ... how about you? So I decided today was the day. 

 I do most everything in my Misti's, and stenciling is not any different. It contains the mess I normally make, and is super easy to clean up, but the best part is no tape needed. I use the magnets to hold everything in place. Underneath I have paper towel, and also use Saran Wrap.  I don't know why, but I tend to keep the paste on the cardstock instead doing it this way. I roll up a piece of painters tape for the underside of the cardstock to hold the center down, which I have done for this card. 

To start this card I die cut my panel with the stitched rectangle die I wanted to use. I then added the embossing paste, letting it dry before adding the colours, which are Peacock Feathers and Worn Lipstick.

 I cut a strip of cardstock and stamped the first part of the sentiment using Ranger Archival ink in Paradise Teal. I stamped the second part of the sentiment, "and a dog" inside my card. I then die cut the heart, leaving it in place and sponging with the Worn Lipstick, then adding some Wink of Stella for a bit of sparkle. I die cut a small circle in the strip and attached it to my base using foam tape. Gluing the back of the circle die I placed it in the circle cut out, then glued on the die cut heart. 

 This close up view shows the sparkle on the heart, and also shows the paste texture up close. It is a pretty clean print, with very little seepage, and I have found that this is the normal case when I do my stenciling with the help of my Misti. 

I hope you have enjoyed this card today, and would like to take this opportunity to thank you for visiting with My Sweet Petunia.

Have a great day.
