Video: Soy Awesome Scene Building

Hello there, Michelle here and today I have a card and video to share with you using the new Soy Awesome set.

Soy Awesome by Michelle Short for Hero Arts

This is such a fun set filled with lots of yummy food! For my card today, I thought I would create a clean and simple scene with the sushi elements in the set. Watch the video below to see how I created the card:

If you are having problems viewing this video, you can watch it HERE in HD on YouTube.

I started off my card by stamping the sushi elements from the Soy Awesome set on to Hero Hues Dove White Premium Cardstock , using Intens-ified Black Ink . I used the new MISTI Mini Hero Black to stamp the images so that I could stamp them twice to get a nice dark impression.

I then added colour with Copic Markers. I fussy cut the images out but you can purchase the Soy Awesome Frame Cuts so that you do not need to do that! I then set them aside while I worked on my background.

I took a 4" x 5.25" panel of Hero Hues Dove White Premium Cardstock and masked off the bottom portion using memo tape. Using ink blending brushes, I blended on Blue Hawaii and Pool Party Reactive Inks. The memo tape was removed and the sentiment stamped below with more Intens-ified Black Ink .

The panel was added to a Hero Hues Dove White Top Folded Card using foam sheet and double sided tape. The sushi plate was added on top with thin foam tape and then the sushi added on top with a combination of thin foam tape and Precision Glue . I added the chopsticks with Precision Glue also and then cut off the edges with scissors. To finish off, I added a few highlights to the images with a white gel pen.

I hope that I haven't made you too hungry now! Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you have a wonderful day!
