SSS Hello Gorgeous Fanfare Stencil

*This post contains affiliate links to Simon Says Stamp


Today I'm sharing a card created with my favorite stencil from the Simon Says Stamp Hello Gorgeous release.  I love the Deco vibe of this Fanfare stencil.  

I used a simple shifting technique to create a dynamic background by repeatedly inking through the stencil, shifting the stencil down slightly, and reinking with another color. I used Simon Says Stamp's Pawsitively Saturated InksLemonade, Sunbeam, Citrine, Cheeky, Mandarin, and Pucker, working from light to dark.  


For the sentiment I used the new You're On My Heart die.  I cut the detailed letters twice, once from a dark orange and once from white cardstock.  These were adhered to one another slightly offset, and then they were adhered to the shadow piece.

To make the background really pop, I added a black mat, and then popped the sentiment up with foam tape.  

That's all for me today.  I'll be back tomorrow with another card featuring my Dimensional Quilt background.
