Our final card from World Card Making Day was designed by Allene Fewell.  The primary techniques were masking & coloring.  I personally liked the nice use of Stickles and the embellishments (especially the star).

The supply list:

3 Wise Men stamp set from Our Daily Bread

Bazzill navy cardstock, Prism white card stock, small scrap of gold card stock for star

Krylon gold pen

Stickles: golden rod, Xmas red, magenta, lime green, green

7″ sheer 1/4″ wide ribbon

1 small rhinestone (for star center)

4×6 post it for mask

Stazon timber brown ink, Brilliance pearlescent sky blue, Colorbox Catseyes: 2-3 browns, medium blue, and yellow-gold

Instructions:

1. Punch a 3 1/2″ circle from a post-it to create a mask. You will need both pieces (the circle and the outside of the circle).

2. On white 4 x 5 1/4 card stock, place outside circle mask and use a dauber to color moon using the Catseye yellow-gold.

3. Remove mask and stamp the Wise Men using Timber brown stazon

4. Now place the circle mask over the moon and use daubers to color the sky using Brilliance sky blue.  Lightly blend the Catseye medium blue around the edges of the sky.

5.  Using Catseyes, color the sand using the browns.

6. Color the wise men and the camels using watercolor pencils or markers.

7. Use the Krylon marker to add a gold border.  Tie sheer ribbon to bottom. Adhere to navy card stock base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2).

8. Stamp saying on a 1 x 2 1/4″ piece of white card stock with brown ink.  Color edges with Brilliance sky blue. Adhere to card front with pop ups.  Optional: Add two scrolls – these are from a Spellbinder die and cut with a Cuttlebug.

9. Stamp star on gold scrap using Stazon brown. Cut out and add small rhinestone to the center.  Adhere to card front with pop up.

10. Add stickles to star and wise men.

I hope you have enjoyed having these cards posted on the blog so you can make them (if you were unable to be with us on World Card Making Day) or make some more (if you were there).  It was a super fun day and I so appreciate each teacher who took the time to design and then teach a card.  You are wonderful!
