Afternoon all, hope you're enjoying the Easter break. I'm happy to stay in my craft room today - it's so windy outside, and I can't stand the wind.
Here's what I've been doing:
I decided to dig out some of my old stash - if you're anything like me I buy it because I need it and then put it in a drawer and go on and buy more stuff because I need it. Anyway, this is my intention for now, to use up some of my stuff.
For this card I used Imagination Crafts stencil paint and one of their embossing masks. I ran it through my TODO first using a rubber mat also from Imagination Crafts (bought from the NEC earlier this month) which give a deeper impression (I was skeptical about buying this when I saw it but it really does work). Then obviously I stencilled with the paint. The sentiment is from a Card-io set.
I am going to enter this into the AAA cards challenge who aptly has a theme of Stencilling this week.
Thanks for dropping by.

I am so glad that you added your card to our challenge. This is simply stunning. I love the colours of the flowers and how the black sentiment makes everything pop! Thanks for playing along with us at AAA Cards!
So pretty! I just love the extra dimension that you created by dry embossing first - and the paint application is perfect! Thanks so much for sharing with us at AAA Cards! Jill
great idea to first dry embossing before stenceling.... looks such deep *perfect
