Have Faith Today with Karen Reategui

Hello friends! Today I'm sharing this bright and shinny encouragment card using Picket Fence Studios products and the original MISTI.

Let's begin! I started by placing the new Wave Sun Stencil from Picket Fence Studios on top of an A2 panel, then I applied distress oxide inks using the Life Changing Blender Brushes. The inks I used Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick and Spiced Marmalade. Once I finished applying the colors I didn't removed the stencil.

Next, I mixed Ranger Texture Paste Transparent Gloss with Nuvo Pure Sheen Glitter Diamond and using a spatula I applied this mix through the stencil. When I finished I immediately removed the stencil and let this panel dry overnight. Because the texture paste is transparent you will be able to see the colors from the background and also all the shine from the glitter, giving this background a wonderful look.  

Once it was dry, I adhered a piece of vellum and wrapped it around the panel. I secured the vellum using glue. I also, heat embossed a piece of cardstock using WOW! Minty Embossing Glitter and die cut from it the word FAITH using the Seeing Double Alpha Die. I added the letters on top of the vellum using glue.

Finally, I stamped my sentiment from BFF Favorite Hello and added it to the velum below the word FAITH. Last, I placed some gems around from the Fire Gem Mixes and adhered a folded note card at the back of this panel. 

Hope you like this card and brings you a little bit of hope and faith with all its bright and shinny colors. Wish you a fantastic day and thanks for stopping by!

Your friend,

Karen
