7. For the final layer, apply stencil number five and ink through with your chosen colour, pressing harder to create definition. ▶ watch 22:45
8. Once dry, optionally spray the card lightly with water and flick metallic paint onto the design for an artistic effect. ▶ watch 24:00
9. Add a sentiment or washi tape to complete your card. ▶ watch 24:15

Tips from the show

• There are no rules—you can use any colour combination you like; the results will be unique each time.
• If you lose detail after adding water, allow the card to dry completely, then go back in with the stencils to re-add definition.
• You can create a monochrome effect by using only shades of grey, starting very light and building to darker tones through all five stencils.
