Funky Affirmation Notelets

These are the last of the samples that I made with Leonie's scribble square stencils.  I decided to see how they would look used on notelets.  I was rather pleased with the results, nothing like the previous set that I had made for another show (see HERE) even though I used a similar method to start with.
Cut a piece of stencil card into four (3.5” x 3.5”). Add Mustard Seed Distress Ink to the square Petite Gel Press plate and blend using a Speedball brayer. Lay the two smallest scribble square stencils over one of the small squares of stencil card and press the gel plate face down onto it. Remove the stencils and stamp the residue onto a second piece of card.
 
Repeat with Carved Pumpkin ink, stamping the ink residue onto the same card as before, turning it 180 degrees first.
 
Repeat with Fossilized Amber Distress ink, stamping the ink residue onto the same card as before, turning 180 degrees again first.
 
Add fibre paste to each topper through one side of the largest square stencil, using a different side of the stencil for each topper. Allow to dry.
 
 
 
Gently rub a hint of Inka-Gold in Haematite over the dry fibre paste.
 
 
 
Add one of the Leonie’s sentiment stickers to each topper.
 
 
 
Die cut four mats using the middle nested square picot cut die from black card. Mat each topper onto a black picot edge panel.
 
 
 
Add each topper to a 5” x 5” white card blank.
 
 
 
Colour some ribbon using the Mustard Seed and Carved Pumpkin Distress inks and allow to dry.
Tie the notelets into a bundle.
I didn't make a box for this set of notelets, unlike the previous set.
