I hope your week has started well :) I wanted to pop by to share a new stencil design which gives a fab geometric effect.....I used it to create a card for the current challenge over at Less is More where we are using purple:
I inked through the stencil on to white card using a range of Distress Inks and then cut a section of the stencilled panel out to adhere to the bottom of the purple card. I extended the effect by stencilling tone on tone onto the purple card as well. I added a sentiment from Papertrey Ink and a few hearts to finish.
I shall also link up at AAA Cards as it is a new stencil that I am sharing with you for the first time :)
It was my hubby's birthday at the weekend and I made this card for him from the boys. It was so simple to do by pressing through the stencil with versamark and white embossing the pattern on the grey card. The alphabet stamps are from Altenew and the rest of the sentiment and headphones die are from MFT. This is a stencil that works perfectly for men's cards!
You can find all of my stencils on Folksy....
I have already shared on FB that I am so excited to be one of the winners of Papercraft Magazines Designer of the Year competition. I won't go on about it again....you can find the designs that I submitted in the current edition of Papercraft Essentials magazine :) I am looking forward to being part of the DT over the coming year!
