EZ with CZ: Simple Ink Blended Stencil Card

Hi friends! Happy Thursday! Please join me in welcoming back special guest CZ (Cathy Zielske!) on our blog for the monthly installment of our EZ with CZ blog series! Read on and be sure to watch the video; enjoy!

Hi friends! Cathy Z. here to share a very simple ink blended card project with you today featuring a fun stencil and some slightly cheeky stamps!

The Fading Hearts Stencil is such a fun size to play with. You can use it for slimline or larger cards, but I just used it for the panel on my US A2 card project. I picked an assortment of Simon Says Stamp ink pads in rainbow colors to create a fun blend for my card.

In this video, however, I make a bit of an error and change my mind on the greeting ink color. Remember: if you mess something up, you can always look for ways to fix it on the fly!

Plus, I added one of the fun greetings from the Sassy Insides stamp set on the inside of the card. This stamp set is perfect for those friends who appreciate a bit of humor!

Here is the video showing you how I created this simple card:
