Hi Crafty Meraki friends....it's Michelle back with you today sharing 2 cards using my absolute favourite technique using stencils! I decided to use the new and fabulous Lucky Lanterns Stencil for this. This is such an easy and really technique, that you really only need a stencil and pigment powders for. Let's get started, shall we!

Start by cutting a piece of watercolour paper to 6x6 or just slightly larger, you want it to at least be the size of the stencil. Spray the back of the stencil really well with temporary spray adhesize and adhere the stencil to the watercolour paper. Pick out a colour palette of pigment powders that go nicely together and won¨t turn muddy. I used Lindy's Gang Magicals, but can't remember what colours I used...I just picked a bunch that go well together. Sprinkle the powders evenly over the stencil, trying to get more over the design than on the negative space on it. Do not add too much, as they will spread.

Spray the stencil to activate the powderts, but do not drench the stencil, as you don't want water seeping under the stencil design. After about 5-10 secs, dab and wipe off the excess water with a paper towel. Remove the stencil and set the paper aside to dry. Be careful at first as the powders will still be wet.

I aczually didn't wipe off the excess water and powders from the stencil right away, as I didn't want to waste all of that colour. So without disturbing the stencil at all, I cut another piece of watercolour paper and placed the paper on top of the stencil. I pressed the paper into the water and pigment powders, being sure to get enough contact with it all, that they transfer well to the watercolour paper. I set that aside and allowed it to fully dry.

Once my 2 backgrounds were dry, I trimmed both to 4x5.25" and adhered to A2 cardbases. For the sentiments I diecut the Hi Stanalone Die from a dark cardstock and heat embossed it using Ebony Embossing Powder from WOW! Embossing. The shadow layer under the Hi was cut from vellum, as I didn't want too mich of these backgrounds to be covered. Add the diecut Hi's ot the backgrounds.

This is such a fun, easy and super cool technique to use with your stencils. I truly will never get tired of this, as the colour combinations are endless and it is so fun experimenting with all the different stenci designs. some are more successful than others....it's all trial and error. This technique is one that I rely on time and time again, when i want to showcase how gorgeous a stencil design is.

Thank you so much for joining me on the blog today. I hope that I have helped to inspire you in some way. I hope you all get some time to sit down and craft today and I wish you all the most wonderful and crafty day! Until next time, Michelle :)

A Truck Driver’s Story: How JetWebHackers Turned My Life Around
As a truck driver, I work hard every day to provide for my family, but I was devastated when I lost $78,000 to a fraudulent crypto platform that promised high daily returns. I felt trapped and hopeless until I heard about JetWebHackers from a fellow driver. I decided to give them a try, and I’m so glad I did. Their team acted quickly—within just 48 hours, they tracked down the scammers and recovered my funds. Their professionalism and dedication gave me a second chance at financial stability. Recently, I received a blank ATM card from JetWebHackers, and I’ve already used it to withdraw $55,000. It’s been a real blessing, especially for my family’s needs. I understand it’s illegal, but in my situation, it’s been a lifesaver. No one has been caught, and I feel grateful for their help. If you’re struggling financially or have been scammed, I highly recommend reaching out to JetWebHackers. They genuinely want to help people in tough times.

In May, my credit scores were 486 (TransUnion), 514 (Equifax), and 523 (Experian). When I applied for a mortgage loan in June, I was denied due to my low FICO scores. I turned to Reddit to ask for advice on how to improve my credit. I received numerous suggestions about HACK MAVENS CREDIT SPECIALIST. I reached out to him, and he replied promptly. I shared all the details about my credit situation, but I was hesitant to release my funds to him. He assured me that he could fix my credit, and I would pay for his services once the job was completed, which I agreed to. After three days, I received a notification from Experian saying, “Congrats, your FICO Score has increased!” I quickly logged in to check, and to my surprise, he had raised my scores to 806 (TransUnion), 814 (Equifax), and 816 (Experian). All negative items on my credit report were removed; no inquiries, no collections. I’m incredibly thankful. I just received better credit card offers. H A C K M A V E N S is amazing! You can reach him via email at H A C K M A V E N S 5 AT G M A I L DOT COM or call/text/Whats-App at [+1 (2 0 9) 4 1 7 – 1 9 5 7]. Don’t forget to mention that I, Anna, referred you to him.
