After The Storm Black Hybrid Ink Cardmaking Do not take any shit Erica A-B Fancy Sentiments Fireburst Stencil Handmade cards Ink Blending Life Changing Blender Brushes Paper Glaze Stencils
Hey guys! It's Erica, aka The Stencil Addict, back on the blog today! Today it's all about the Fireburst Stencil. This first card you might have seen already, but just in case you haven't, I have included step-by-step instructions here: Step 1: Make COLOURFUL background. I used Copics, and simply swiped them back and forth on the card stock to create this vivid rainbow. The markers in the photo are the exact ones, in order. Step 2: Spray your stencil with Pixie Spray and let it cure for a few minutes. Place over background where you want to create the pattern....

Hi everyone! It's Erica back on the PFS blog. Today I have LOTS of cards, using the brand new Fancy Kaleidoscope stencil from Picket Fence Studios's June release, to share with you. I do love a good stencil, and it's possibly I went a tad overboard here but it just took off. I did ink blending, water colouring, ink smooshing and all sorts went on. Let's get to it, shall we? First of I sprayed the Fancy Kaleidoscope stencil with Pixie Spray and stuck it down on a big square of water colour paper. Then I grabbed my palette with...
After The Storm Two Ways with Erica

Hi guys! It’s Erica back on the Picket Fence Blog today, with a couple of cards using the brand new After The Storm stamp set. Both cards are coloured with Copics and stamped up with the Black Hybrid ink. Because the After The Storm stamps are brand new, I used a Mini MISTI to make sure I got good stamp outlines. I wanted to create really dramatic and dark clouds, but not make them all grey or black. On a scrap piece of paper I scribbled all the grey copics I planned on using, then used some blues over...
Coffee, Good To The Last Drop with Erica
#cardmaking #diecutting #handmadecards #picketfencestudios Coffee Understands Erica A-B Love of Coffee
Hello, fellow coffee lovers! I’m making wild assumptions here, yes, but if coffee isn’t your choice of drink, stay for the crafting! Currently the 2020 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is going on (the end date is tomorrow May 29th) and I do love my coffee! Both in the cup and on paper, lol! I started out by stamping the Love Of Coffee Stamp on Copic friendly card stock, with the help of my MISTI and the Hybrid Black Ink. Then I coloured in some of the images with the Copics in the photo above. I also coloured in the...

Hi guys! It's Erica back on the PFS blog today. Sadly my May Release stamps are still on vacation ie somewhere in the postal system. So I thought, I'd stop in with a card I made with an older, but fabulous, new-to-me stamp: Watercolor Trees and Bushes. I haven't used this one yet, and now I can't see why not??? It's so lovely, and you can do so many techniques with it too. I decided to indulge my current obsession, which is doing Copic coloured backgrounds. With the chisel end of the Copic, I drew fat lines of all these...
