Stencil background

 


I printed a sentiment from Gecko Galz onto a large sheet of paper and then cut it out with a TL pinpoint die. Then using an old circle stencil from Crafters Companion and various coloured DIs I went over the sentiment. I used one of the same inkpads to drag across the edges of a larger die cut piece so that it cordinated, and then used it as the base.

I'm entering this card into the Stencil Fun Challenge - create your own background and Word Power challenge as my sentiment is the focus of the card.

I love a bold sediment, Lynn, especially when it is unique like this and this one goes perfectly with the colorful stenciled circles in the background! Thank you for the great tip about how to make a frame match one of the card colors, she says, slapping her forehead! Hugs, Darnell
