Dreamweaver Tie Card

We always have a hard time making a card for a man, but Dreamweaver has come out with a tie stencil that makes a really nice card! These cards were designed by Dreamweaver, but I wanted to share the ideas with you. Dry emboss the tie stencil and then, for the card on top (black/gold tie), lay the card down with the Tie stencil over the embossed image and then put the Stripes stencil on top, either horizontally or vertically and stencil with black ink. Then change the direction of the stripes stencil to make the plaid design.

For the card with the diagonal stripes, lay the Stripes stencil at a diagonal on top of the tie stencil and then use a dauber with ink to add your stripes. Notice how the colors have a graduated effect, so you want some stripes to be darker than others. See the cards below for other variations. Notice how changing the direction of the stripes as well as using color varations can change the look of your tie.
