Hello friends! I am back with the special "Sticker Monday" posts. I will be sharing various styles of cards and also various ways you can use the Clear Stickers on your cards :) I am so loving the stickers. Every month, we'll draw one lucky crafter to win a $15 gift code -- randomly drawn from all comments left on the Sticker Monday posts at the STAMP blog for the month, as well as from my blog.
Today I am sharing how unique backgrounds can make these gorgeous stickers shine. I made three cards with same but unique designs. I have featured "Love is - Clear Stickers"
Let me show you the cards I made... For these cards, I wanted to make a focal piece with similar colors but a unique designs :) I worked with a small focal die cut panel and used pure and simple stenciling on one, stamping on another and ink blending with ghosting on the third :)
Here is my first card...
Here is my second card...
As you know my obsession with Distress Oxide inks and they work great for solid stamping. I created a gradient with a combinations of inks using a butterfly stamp.
Stenciling can look so amazing when the stencil is fantastic :) what do you think?!!!

Here is my third card...
As you can see, here I simply ink blended and then used a stencil, sprayed it with water and stamped on inked panel to achieve the subtle effect :) To add more interest I added dry embossed backgrounds for my focal panels.
I hope you like the cards I created and that I inspired you to try stickers on your projects.
Besides the stickers, I have used the following All Blooms - ARTplorations Stencil, Trendy Butterflies, Scaly - ARTplorations Stencil, ATC Tag Builder dies and Art Edges
