Monday Moments

How was your weekend? Because of a splattering of wet snow on Saturday and a biting cold wind I've had the perfect weekend of crafting!

Today's card was made with two challenges in mind - Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge and Stamplorations Theme & Sketch Challenge.

http://www.happylittlestampers.com/2016/04/hls-april-cas-challenge_3.html       http://stamplorations.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/april-challenge.html   http://stamplorations.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/april-challenge.html


Here's my card:

I've never tried the stencil print technique before and it took several attempts - bin jobs - to find a stencil that worked for me. But now I'm loving how it gives the negative version of the stencil and stretches its use.


I added a few splatters of ink both above and below the washi tape banner flags and then finished off with a long sentiment.

Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, sentiment from Pure Florals: Cosmos
Inks: Ranger distress, shaded lilac, evergreen bough; Memento, rose bud, tuxedo black
Stencil: Memeory Box, texture mesh
Embellishments: washi from my stash

Thanks for visiting today, so pleased you did!  And keep crafting!

    This is so fun, artsy and bright! Even if it did take you an attempt or two, the end result was totally worth it! Thanks for playing along with us at STAMPlorations!
