October Card Making Class - Project 2

My second project from this month’s Card Making Class was this fun grafitti wall.

I last taught a grafitti wall project way back in 2019. This is my updated version.

Azure Afternoon and Blueberry Bushel, with Basic White were my main colours, with Cajun Craze for the wall colouring.

To begin, all of the stamping needs to happen. The With You in Mind Stamp Set provides the sentiment stars. For the two different paint splatters, I used the flower centres from the Delightful Wishes Stamp Set and the ‘splats’ from the Beautiful Butterflies Stamp Set.

Once all the stamping was completed, the piece was then embossed using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. This gave the effect of the wall having been written on.

The wall was then coloured around the edges using a Blending Brush and a Cajun Craze Stampin’ Pad, leaving the centre plain to allow it to stand out more.

Finally, all that was needed was for the project to be assembled. When I’m using Embossing Folders, I like to use Tear & Tape to make sure everything sticks together well.

I think you’ll agree it’s a perfect project for men, teenagers, or those who are difficult to create for. It was also the quickest project to make from the class, so a great design to make if you need to rustle up a card in a hurry.
