Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

I’ve got some fun CHRISTMAS IN JULY vellum overlay cards to show you today! We will be using the wonderful Hero Arts “Snowflake” Layering Stencil Set to create an elegant background. This video is sort of a Part Two to another video I did recently using the Hero Arts “Poinsettia” Layering Stencil Set, and I will link that down below for you if you would like to check that out!

Let’s begin by die-cutting a rectangle from some white cardstock and a second panel using some blue cardstock. To die-cut the panels we will be using the Hero Arts Infinity Rectangle Die Set. Now we can begin our stenciling. This Hero Arts Stencil is a 4-part layering stencil. For both of these cards we will be using the Hero Arts Core Inks in several pretty blue tones. So we will use the same colors, however, by changing the cardstock base color we will get two completely different looks!

I’ll show you exactly how I inked these stencils in today’s video and give you some easy tricks and tips for adding color and blending.

Once the stenciling is complete, we will cut the vellum overlay. To do this, we will simply cut a strip of vellum paper approximately 2 3/4″ by 5 1/2″. Next, let’s add some fun Hero Arts “Joyful Christmas Messages” Hero Transfers to each of the cards in the coordinating colors. This set of transfers has tons of sentiments to choose from! We can also complete the inside of each of the cards with these same transfers/rub-ons.

Now simply tear the edges of the vellum and secure it with some double-sided tape on the backside of the snowflake panel. This will hide the adhesive really well!

For a bit more interest and dimension, let’s add some Hero Arts Hero Hues – Enamel Dots around each of the sentiments.

As a finishing touch, we can add some pretty white sparkly snowflakes using some glitter paper. Let’s also add some of the Hero Hues Pearls in white to the center of each of the snowflakes!

Here is the other video that I mentioned earlier if you would like to check it out:
