Flip Your Stencil!

Learn how to create a bold geometric card background using a layered stencil ink blending technique. In this video, I’m sharing how to use one stencil in two passes to build depth and create a subtle optical illusion effect.

By simply rotating and layering your stencil, you can achieve a dynamic, dimensional design that looks much more complex than it actually is. In this tutorial, you’ll learn: How to layer stencil designs for added depth Tips for clean ink blending using simple masking How to create an optical illusion effect with color layering A bonus way to add texture using dry embossing The result is a vibrant, eye-catching background that works beautifully for modern card designs.
