Hi All, welcome to Day 5 of the ARTplorations Stencil Blog Hop where we're celebrating all things stencil.
Here is my project ...
I was working with the Some Birds ARTplorations Stencil and added a handwritten sentiment with some doodles to create today's CAS card. I sponged my background using Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie inks on a pieced rectangle die cut. I then added the bird in Early Espresso and my sentiment plus doodles using the same colour maker pen. To finish, I layered my bird on a linen effect base card and added a few sequins.
For oodles of inspiration check out what the rest of the team made! You'll find links to all our projects here.
