More Stencils

Hello!

I have been playing with my stencils today having been inspired by the Artplorations blog hop that Shery and the DT held this week.  I have used the gorgeous leaf print stencil again - this time on kraft:





I sponged through the stencil first in Hero Arts White Pigment Ink and then moved it slightly before sponging over again in Hero Arts Field Green.  I love the effect on kraft.  I heat embossed the Hashtag Authentic sentiment in green on kraft card and added some green twine behind it.

I will link up at the Stamplorations flash linky stencil party and also at Addicted to CAS where the code word is Green.  I am also joining in the March challenge at Happy Little Stampers to use sponging.

I also had another play with my gelli plate to create this card:


The stencil is a lovely leafy swirl from Clarity Stamps.  The warm colours and pattern looked African to me so I added an African tribesman silhouette stamp.  The sentiment is from the Hashtag Authentic set by Stamplorations which is white embossed on to black.  This isn't my usual style but I like the rich colours, pattern and depth of the gelli print.

I will link up at Stamplorations March challenge to use stamps and stencils.

Thanks for stopping by :)

  2. Ooh I love what you've done with the leaf - I must try that 'bumping' (I think it's called?) technique , the white is very effective on the kraft. I hope you don't mind that I've pinned it for inspiration.
    Gorgeous colours on your second card.
