🔊 FÜR TON TIPPEN

Create a stunning woodland wildlife card featuring a detailed stag surrounded by evergreen trees and a distressed, atmospheric background. This project uses stencil masking to protect your focal image whilst building layers of forest scenery with distress inks and splatter effects. The result is a dramatic card with depth and a beautiful halo effect that draws the eye to the magnificent stag at its centre.

   Stamp the stag's head in black ink in the centre of your white cardstock. Position the stamp carefully to ensure the image is centred on the card.

   Position the interior stencil over the stamped stag image. Colour in the stag using brown distress inks (Frayed Burlap and Brushed Corduroy) with a blending brush, working through the stencil opening.

5. 

   Lightly spray the entire card with water using a spray bottle. This will push out the detail and create a distressed, bleeding effect with the distress inks on the stamped trees and deer.

6. 

   Dry the card thoroughly with a heat gun, holding it close and moving quickly to avoid lumps and bumps. Mop up any puddles with tissue as needed.

   Add splatter effects by mixing green and brown distress inks on your craft mat, spraying with water, and flicking the brush onto the card around the trees to create texture.

Tipps aus der Show

• Distress inks are not ideal for crisp stamping but are perfect for backgrounds, distressing and spraying effects.
• Use a heat gun that is super hot and apply it for less time to avoid lumps and bumps in your cardstock.
• Creating a halo effect around your focal point builds perspective and creates a cinematic look that draws the eye to the centre.
