Skull and Cross Buns - July 2020 - Selection Two

Hi there

This morning I'm sharing a couple more samples using another of the new stencils from Skull and Cross Buns, ahead of their products being featured on Hochanda on the 9am show this Friday, 3 July 2020.

The new stencil in the spotlight here is called Rainbow Half...

I masked off the edges of the card base here before inking up each section of the stencil one by one in rainbow colours.  Lots of masking was required so that each part could be inked separately.  I then created a stitched frame using two rectangle dies and adhered two cloud border die cuts behind it at the top and base, and trimmed away the excess.  I stamped the word 'dream' from the Quirky Sentiments set and then adhered the frame to the card base, the rainbow showing through the aperture.

Materials used:

• Stencil: Skull and Cross Buns - Rainbow Half
• Ink: Distress Ink - Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac, Spun Sugar, Abandoned Coral, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Cracked Pistachio; Versafine - Onyx Black
• Stamp: Skull and Cross Buns - Quirky Sentiments
• Dies: Create a Smile - Double Stitched Rectangles; Lawn Fawn - Puffy Cloud Borders

This following idea suddenly sprung into my mind when holding the stencil at a different angle...

Straight away I saw that the WiFi logo could be created from the first few small sections of this stencil.  So not a greetings card, but something you could display in your home, either on a surface or in a frame to provide your guests with your Wifi ID and passcode.  So I inked through just the first three sections of the stencil blended two shades of Distress Oxide ink, and instead of adding the usual dot at the base, I stamped a heart from the Crafting is my Super Power set.  The 'you got this' sentiment is from Quirky Sentiments and the boxes at the bottom are from the Planner Banners set.  A die cut frame finished this project.

Materials used:

• Stencil: Skull and Cross Buns - Rainbow Half
• Stamps: Skull and Cross Buns - Quirky Sentiments, Crafting is my Super Power, Planner Banners
• Ink: Distress Oxide - Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers; Versafine - Onyx Black; Altenew - Lagoon
• Dies: Create a Smile - Double Stitched Rectangles
