Hello friends! Welcome to Stencil Week, my favorite week of all! This is Mindy and I’m excited to share my project with you today featuring white pigment ink and kraft cardstock (and stencils of course!)

I have a video sharing this process that you can view down below or HERE on the Pretty Pink Posh YouTube channel.

White pigment ink on kraft cardstock is such a fun and unique look. I’m starting with the Falling Branches stencil and applying White pigment ink using a dome blending tool. I want to make sure I’m getting really good coverage with the white ink.

After I remove the stencil, I’m going to clean it and then position back over the card front, lining up the images.

I’m going to apply a light green ink over the stencil with a blending brush. Be sure to watch the video for all the tips I share when applying ink over white pigment ink.

Before removing the stencil, I’m going to apply a darker green to give the branches some shading and highlight areas.

For a little interest and fun, I’m adding splatters with white paint and also a mix of water and dark green ink.

After the panel is dry, I’m going to frame the design with a white Scallop Frame popped up with foam strips.

My sentiment comes from the Simple Sentiments stamp set and is heat embossed in white embossing powder with a coordinating color of green cardstock to match my background. After trimming this down to a thin strip, I can add it to my card front by slightly overlapping the white frame.

For an embellishment, I’m adding three white flowers die cut from the Spring Foliage set and dropping in Lemon Drop Jewels in the center.

A very simple card with a fun technique and delicate look. Hope you give this a try! Thanks for joining me today and enjoy all the inspiration this week!
