STAMPlorations Throwback Thursday (February 2020)...Casing Tenia (Jazzy Paper Designs)

Hello,

A warm welcome to my second, of three, STAMPlorations Throwback Thursdays, where we select a previous card/project - one of our own or a teammate's - and 're-vision' it in three ways.

Call me daring (or perhaps, crazy) for deciding to draw inspiration from super talented, uber-cool, always something unique STAMP designer, Tenia Nelson!  Her clean, funky style is pure delight soooo...I thought I'd try channeling my 'inner Tenia' to see if I could create cards as sensational as hers.  The specific card I've selected - featuring a sticker, stencil, washi tape and her 'signature touch heart' - is the one she created for Sticker Monday:

Delightful, right!

My three cards follow Tenia's design/sketch, as well as stickers, stencils and snippets of washi (which is something I rarely use).

Ready to see how Tenia inspired me?  Let's go....

Card #1 

This 'warm up' card follows Tenia's closely...

Such fun to make and, in true Tenia 'to-the-point' style, here's what I did:

• Create panel from white card base.
• Ink up Shutters stencil. 
• Add Good Things sentiment sticker onto a piece of paper; die cute. Add washi tape under sentiment edges; add Tenia's signature heart (same ink as stencil, colour with Nuvo sparkle pen)
• Adhere sentiment onto image panel using foam to create dimension.
• Adhere the image panel onto card base.

Card #2

For this card, I continued with the same elements and sketch, but used the sticker in a different fashion: 

• Create panel from white card base.
• Ink up Shutters stencil. 
• Add one of the Mixed Media #1 stickers onto a piece of paper; die cut Coffee Cup Silhouette. Die cut two more coffee cups and stack for dimension. 
• Keep one set of inside pieces to inlay, creating the illusion of a panel. 
• Add signature heart (same ink as stencil, colour with Nuvo sparkle pen)
• Adhere stacked coffee cup onto image panel; inlay white pieces.
• Adhere the image panel onto card base.

Card #3

For my final card, I used two sets of stickers...

• Create panel from white card base.
• Adhere two stickers from Artsy Geometric Backgrounds onto a piece of cardstock. Die cut using Basic A2 Nesting Panels (I used Panel 3).
• Add Good Things sentiment sticker onto a piece of paper; die cute. Add washi tape on sentiment corners; add signature heart. Adhere sentiment panel to panel, using foam for dimension.
• Adhere the image panel onto card base.

I learned so much from 'copying' Tenia's style and trying to add a few different touches of my own. A huge THANK YOU to Tenia for being so incredibly inspiring.

There you have it: Throwback Thursday #2 is a wrap!  I'll be back in March!
