Simon Says Stamp Folk Dance Stencil 4 Ways
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 ноя 2024
- I love working with stencils as there’s just a ton of things that they can be used for. One of the ways to use it, the most common way, is to apply ink through the stencil to create a beautiful background. I used Simon’s Deep Sea ink, it’s a nice deep blue, and blended color through the Folk Dance stencil onto my paper to create a bold background.

This particular design looked very Scandinavian to me, and I associate blue with this style so I knew I wanted to use a lot of blue, mainly blue color for my cards today. I blended this ink rather heavily onto the paper and I just went with one solid color. If you have smaller ink blending tools, like little daubers, you can do selective ink blending and blend the flowers in red and yellow and keep the leaves blue.
You can also dry emboss with the stencil - its like en embossing folder, it can emboss your paper but the impression is not going to be as deep. I used my Platinum die cutting machine from Spellbinders to dry emboss my ink blended background as well as just a piece of white cardstock with the help of the stencil.
I just love this look of white on white - there’s just nothing quite like it. You can also try it on colored cardstock, but white is a winner in my book.
Another thing I like to use my stencils with is texture paste. I used texture paste from Ranger and applied a very heavy layer of my paste onto Soft Navy cardstock from Simon Says Stamp - still going for that white and blue look.
I loved the result, I got dimension, I got texture - I basically got everything I wanted from this background with this paste.
One last thing I wanted to share is using just parts of a stencil. I masked some areas of my stencil so that I could change up the look. This stencil has a pattern to it - there are repeating elements on it, and I wanted to break it up apart without actually physically breaking the stencil; I wanted to use these elements separately to create a different arrangement on my background. I still used the same elements, I simply changed how they were arranged on my background.
I blended same Soft Navy ink and formed a floral frame keeping the central part of my panel white. I think I had the most fun creating this background - as it gave me a completely different look to my card.
I also added a bit of color this background by using my Nuvo drops in yellow, red and gray. I used gray for the filler dots - so any blue dots that weren’t flower centers I coated a lot of those in gray and than used yellow as the flower center for large flowers and red for the small flowers. And I loved how I was able to easily add color to this background. And this also helped me to cover up some of the imperfect blending spots that I had on my card.
The sentiments for all 4 of my projects came from an older stamp set from Simon - I heat embossed them in white embossing powder onto blue cardstock, trimmed into strips and foam mounted onto the cards.

I really, really love these cards! It's the blue and white color combo that warms my Finnish heart ❤ Thanks for sharing all the different techniques.
Videos like this are some of my favorites. Trial and error are great learning curves and the way you continue to complete the projects encourage me to not give up and toss something I think is not working out. Cards are lovely as all your projects are. Thank you for sharing the good & the not so always good :)
I absolutely love the fact that you left in the mistakes,it helps me alot.I think the last card was the prettiest,next to the texture paste.Thank you so much.
Fabulous video, yana - I am not sure how I missed it first time around. Better late than never, lol. Gorgeous stencil and cards. Thank you, for all of your inspiration, even the ones that didn't work out.
Yana WOW!! Absolutely beautiful cards! I’m glad you left in what didn’t work out, it’s nice to see those things as well as the successes. But the colors you used, & especially the card with masking off the areas of the stencil- gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing with us.
Those are all stunning but the last one was my favorite. Thank you for sharing your little oops moments ❤️
Beautiful! I have to get this stencil now! I also love how honest and real you are; not everything goes as planned, which is the story of my life, but we learn from it and go on. Hooray!
I too thought this stencil has a Scandinavian feel! Thanks for the inspiration, Blessing
Wow Yana this is gorgeous. Love how you broke up the stencil into your own design.
Hi, Yana, and welcome to Arizona!!! I did not realize that you live in the US now. What a beautiful set of cards you made!!! So lovely!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
Beautiful cards Yana! Thanks for showing your “fails” too. Fun to play with the stencils.
Thank you, Norah!
I have become quite a stencil junkie Yana and I love the way you blocked off part of the stencil to change things up a bit. As always, your cards are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing and I hope you're having a wonderful weekend. ~HUGS~

Beautiful cards. Thanks for all the ideas. So enjoy your videos.
Lovely cards. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm glad to see that you showed what didn't work and what to try.
Thank you!
Hello Yana, although i always love your way of thinking and what you do, the spot masking card was my favourite as it looked so clean and fresh looking, those spots of colour are just enough to add that bit of POW. Thank you flower for 4 lovely ways to use the one item, it certainly widens our horizons for us. love from Scotland x
I love all the different ways you used the same stencil. I am always looking for new ways to use items I already have.
Thank you, Michele!
What a great idea to mask off parts of the stencil. Thank you for sharing with us!
Great ideas for using stencils, Yana! I have some, but don't use them very often.
Thank you Yana for all of your creative stencil projects.
I'm so happy that I had already ordered this stencil. I am particularly fond of dark blue with white so I adore what you have created Yana. That partially stenciled card that you showed at the end of the video "rocks"! Always a joy watching you create Yana and always an education too. TFS
Thank you, Nancy!
Gorgeous cards, Yana! Thank you so much for sharing all of these wonderful ideas with us!
Thank you, Barb!
Great video. The card with the texture-paste is my favorite.
Beautiful, Colorful Creative Works of Art! I store my inks, mousse, texture paste, alcohol markers in Airtight, Watertight Really Useful Boxes. I also put them in airtight Ziplock bags as well. I store my tapes in the fridge to prevent them gumming up in the heated summers.
PA what a fantastic idea for storage!! We recently moved to Texas & our house is not designed to warm it up. When I run the furnace it gets so warm upstairs (where my craft room is) that I’m afraid my inks will dry out. I will be giving your storage idea a try! Thanks!
That's a beautiful stencil. Love the color you used. Thanks for the tutorial!
Thank you for sharing your fails as well as successes! Love the cards!
Beautiful stencil and the blue colors you picked!
I love how you used the stencil! The masking techniques was a great way to expand the way you can use the stencil. I look forward to your next video!
thank you, Nancy!
BEAUTIFUL cards!!
You're so good. Love to watch your card making videos.
Love all your ideas, great use of a stencil, Thanks!!!
These are so pretty Yana! I love the blues, very pretty!

That is an awesome video Yana! this blue plus white color combo loooks so fresh and stylish! Thanks so much for all the inspiration you share!!! Love
thank you, Daria!
Wow! What a superb idea and inspiration. Your tutorial is clear and detail, great work! I love the embossing effect using the stencil, which I have never thought of other than inking it. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing.
Yana, great ideas , the cards are beautiful. Thank you.
thank you, Dori!
Loved all r of your ideas as the cards are beautiful! I am going to try out all 4 & can't wait to get the stencil.
Learned something new. Thank you... Enjoyed it...
Thank you, Michelle!
I love your ideas! This stencil speaks to my heart!
Lovely cards! Thank you for giving me many new ideas for cards.
Thank you, Joan!
Love this stencil! The blue ink on white reminds me of the plates my grandmother used to display in her house. On your piece that you did the white ink on and then added the other paper to get the opposite print, I don't think the ink spread out I think it transferred from the one under it. I bet it would work out beautifully if you took off the first paper before running it through the machine. Just a thought. I love how they all turned out. Thanks for sharing!
WOW Yana these are all gorgeous, I especially like the one where you masked off parts of the stencil. Simply GORGEOUS!
thank you, Teresa!
Love this. Thank you.
Yvana can you use a roller instead?
I love your videos! Thank you for sharing what works as well as what didn't! Very helpful. Your cards are gorgeous.
Thank you, Vicki!

Very cool. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful!
thanks, Jenny!
Thank you Yana, it is interesting to see how a designer goes about finding a design to use; even if things do not go to plan. Its a good job you have only a small jar of embossing paste that went hard imagine if it had been a large jar. I have had a Top Tip from another crafter in a hot country who puts cling wrap over the top of the jar before putting the lid back on to stop some of the hardening. Hope this helps Yana. Great cards thought that you did produce. I love the one with the Nuvo drops especially. :o)
Lorraine Turner what a great tip about the cling wrap! I have some things that have dried out & I’ve been trying (in vain!) to bring them back to life. I’ll be using that tip for sure. 😊
