Life Is Short

Hello Crafty Friends!

It's Release and Celebration Time this week over at STAMPlorations as they are having their belated 6th Birthday Celebrations and releasing a few new products too.

Day 3 is dedicated to Sanna's new stencils.

Here are today's projects ...


For my first card, I used the technique I shared earlier this month here in my Spotlight Project on the STAMPlorations Blog. I simply moved the stencil around to get 3 of the flowers in a position I wanted them to be in. To finish, I added some splatters and stamped my sentiment.


For my next card, I masked off part of the stencil and used some ink for blending.


Here, I partially sponged the stencil and finished off with one of the new stickers we'll be introducing tomorrow. The sticker was coloured with alcohol markers.

My last card again uses the watercolour pencil technique for the background with a bit of stamping. die-cutting and another one of the new stickers.


I was working with these two stencil beauties ...
