Here’s a how-to that we would file under EASY! Create beautiful holiday cards just using UniBall gel pens and stencils. The result is a very handmade look and feel to the card!
Tools you’ll need:
- Uniball gel pens – white, gold, silver
- Holiday Ornaments Stencil – Small (5.75″ x 6″)
- Blank card
- Painter’s tape
Secure the stencil with painter’s tape to prevent it from moving while you paint.
Test out your gel pen on a piece of paper before using it on your holiday card.
Decide which ornaments you want to paint a certain color.
Make sure to reach the edge of the inside the stencil image to get great results. With the Uniball gel pen’s tip, you can reach the small details.
Color it in. Don’t you love white ink? Looks so good on these black cards. Once you’re done, I recommend that you let it dry before moving on to the next ornament.
You can grab another metallic color and begin coloring in another ornament.
I alternated between the gold and silver gel inks.
Remove the Holiday Ornament stencil and let the gel ink dry well.
Now that you’re done, you can create as many holiday cards as you desire and make them as personalized as you want. You can add a sweet written message, or even add glitter for a more sparkling touch.
