Merci- You're the Best

Have you seen the exciting new products that Wendy Vecchi introduced at Creativeations last month?  I'll be sharing her new products over the next couple of weeks and you can purchase them from Simon Says Stamp starting February 27th.

I have to say I love these new products and she has designed some brilliant accessories to go with her new 7" x 7" STAY-tion, which is a smaller version of her 12" x 12" STAY-tion.   

For my card today I used the new Merci & More Wendy Vecchi MAKE ART Stamp, Die, Stencil Set, the 7" x 7" STAY-tion, and the Wendy Vecchi line of Liquid Pearls in Sunflower, Prickly Pear and Cornflower Blue.  Be sure to keep coming back to see the other new products, you can see them here on my Blog, on my Stamp This Facebook page and on my Stamp This Instagram page, just click on the links to follow.

Here's how my card was made-

• The STAY-tion comes with four magnets that securely hold your stencil on your paper, so you can apply ink without worrying about your stencil moving.  I used a blender brush to apply Forget-Me-Not ink.

• Once I was done with applying the ink, I used the gridlines to apply Wendy Vecchi Washi Tape from the Assortment 1 pack.
• Sunflower Archival Ink was blended on the upper portion of the panel.
• Dots of Sunflower Liquid Pearls were added to the center of the stenciled images.  To do this I squeezed a small amount of the Liquid Pearls onto my craft mat and used the larger stylus from the Perfect Stylus Set, dip the larger end into the Liquid Pearls and tapped it in the center.  This was repeated until done.
• The green image was stamped on white cardstock with Leaf Green ink and cut out using the matching die.
• Merci was stamped with Forget-Me-Not ink the frame was stenciled around it with black ink.
• Hearts were die-cut from red cardstock using dies from the set.
