CAS Stencil March Challenge - Reminder


Hi everyone, a reminder that there is still time to join in at the CAS Stencil Challenge where the technique is Ghosting.


I inked my background with blue distress ink, placed the stencil over the top and misted lightly with water. I used the leftover piece to make a die-cut sentiment, and butterfly to which I added glossy accents.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.

Springtime Azaleas


The challenge at Less Is More is "Take 3". I wanted to make something with a "Spring feel" and thought these pretty azalea stamps would be good.  The three flowers and leaves were stamped, water-coloured and die-cut. 

Thanks for looking!

CAS Stencil March Card Challenge


The technique for this month at CAS Stencil Challenge is "Ghosting" - a fun technique where a stencil is placed over an inky background (made with anything water soluble such as distress inks, paints, distress crayons) and then rubbed over with a baby wipe or misted with water to remove some of the colour leaving a 'ghost' of the stencil. We have some helpful tutorials on the CAS Stencil blog.


To make my card, I inked a background with two colours of distress ink, placed a leaf stencil over the top, misted with water and then mopped up any excess moisture with paper towel. 

The other DT members and our guest designer have some fabulous creations to inspire you and we look forward to seeing what you make.

Thanks for looking!
