Fall Stenciling

Hi Crafty Friends,
Have you seen the NEW Stencils at Brass & Bliss? I am showing off the Brass & Bliss Fall Floral Stencil 4309 with a cute gnome card featuring the Brass & Bliss Autumn Gnomes 35026. I made a bookmark with the Brass & Bliss Pumpkin & Leaves Stencil 4307 featuring the one of the hippos from the Brass & Bliss Halloween Hippo 36056 Stamp Set.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What stencils would you like Brass & Bliss to create?
A: Me? Layering birthday presents

Step 1: I started my card by creating my stenciled background with Brass & Bliss Color Fuse Inks and Brass & Bliss Blending Brushes. I did layer 1 in Juniper, layer 2 in Pumpkin, and layer 3 in Pecan.




Step 2: I colored the Autumn Gnomes in fall colors with Copic Sketch Markers to match my stenciled background.
Step 3: I cut a scallop border from brown cardstock with Brass & Bliss Outside Scallop Frame Die 5500-02D. I mounted the scallop on my stenciled background and trimmed around the edge.
Step 4: I finished my card by adding the sentiment with the gnome beside it and highlighted it with brown pearl gems.
Fall Hippo Bookmark
Step 1: I started my bookmark by using Brass & Bliss Color Fuse Inks Pumpkin, Pecan, and Juniper with Brass & Bliss Detail Brushes on kraft paper. The detail brushes make it so easy to do the individual images.

Step 2: I die cut the stenciled background and a piece of brown cardstock with a retired Brass and Bliss Slimline Die but the IN STOCK Brass & Bliss 5320D Nested Scallop with Half Holes Die would work great.
Step 3: I finished the bookmark by adding the rustic twine on top, stamping Welcome AUTUMN to the center with Brass & Bliss Autumn Gnomes 35026, and the hippo from the Brass & Bliss Halloween Hippo 36056 Stamp Set.
