Hello and welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today’s video will be Part 2 of the Tim Holtz Mixed Media Gentlemen Card Series! Part 1 was a Mixed Media Card using the Tim Holtz Texture Fades, Embossing Glaze, Foundry Wax and so much more! I will link Part 1 here if you would like to check that out: Tim Holtz Mixed Media Gentlemen – Part 1 (Texture Fades, Embossing Glaze, Foundry Wax and more!)

Let’s get started by creating a graphic background using a set of three stencils from Pinkfresh Studio called the Geo Arch. There is a Hot Foil Plate that coordinates with these stencils. I will list and link that below, however, we will only be using the stencils today.

To get started we will be stamping the background with some script text in a permanent black ink. Then we will do our stenciling. For colors we will be using the brand new Distress Oxide Ink in the Lost Shadow for stencil #1, Black Soot for stencil #2 and either Lumberjack Plaid or Uncharted Mariner for the pop of color!

Next we will apply the coordinating Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Glaze to each of the cards. Remember that this is a translucent powder so that will allow the text underneath to show through! I will give you a few tricks for embossing only one layer of stenciling.

We can die cut the two gentlemen, cane and umbrella several times with the TH Black Heavystock. Let’s layer these up to give these men some added dimension.

For the sentiments on both the outside and inside of the card we will be using the TH Sizzix Thinlits Bold Text #1. Once we have die cut the sentiments out of the white 100lb cardstock we can back each of these using the TH idea-ology Kraft-Stock Metallic Colors in Red and Blue.

Let’s add a few of the TH idea-ology Droplets in black for some added interest. This will also add a bit of dimension and keep the card in a more masculine look. If you want to give the card a more feminine look then swap out the black for some sparkly hearts, sequins or stars!
