Today, STAMPgirl Deepti is sharing a trio of awesome encouragement cards featuring our clear stickers.

  

Hello friends! I am back with Sticker Monday feature and continuing my obsession with kraft card stock. Today I am sharing cards I made using the New Day clear stickers for a trio of encouragement cards :)

Let me show you the cards I made... For these cards, I wanted to work with pink, blue and white color scheme on kraft card stock and use and outline image along with a solid stamp image.

For all my cards, I followed the rules of visual imagery... creating a visual triangle, keeping things in odd numbers, going off the edge. For the sentiments, I used stickers. I simply decided on a combination of sentiments for each card and adhered them on white card stock. I then cut them into sentiment strips to adhere them on my stamped backgrounds.

Here is my first card...

Here is my second card...

I recently grabbed quite a few Distress oxide inks and they work great for solid stamping. If you don't have these, you can always work with pigment ink. I you don't have both I would say using white card stock instead of kraft is a better choice for dye inks. I also added interest by using some mixed media stamps.


Here is my third card...

As you can see that I adhered the sentiment stickers in unique style. Having sentiment stickers makes it easier :) Also, you can see the washi tape like addition along the edges. That's also a sticker...Artsy Geometric Backgrounds :) Even though it's a background sticker, I cut it out to suit to my design needs :)


I hope you like the cards I created and that I inspired you to try stickers on your projects.

Besides the Artsy Geometric Backgrounds and New Day stickers, I have used the following: Trendy Birds 2, Trendy Butterflies, Mixed Media Grunge, Bloom Sketches (retired, but available as digital stamps here).

Thank you soooooo much for all your lovely comments. Love reading them!
