Morning.
Playing along with the Splitcoast Challenge this am called Grids and Tiles. Thought of this stencil I recently bought and haven't really used, so I was off to ink.
I began by laying my stencil over my paper and then using one of the new Distress ink colours called Cracked Pistachio and an inking tool, I rubbed the ink over the whole stencil. Leaving the stencil in place, I took some circle stamps (and a pencil with an eraser on the end for the smallest circles) inked them up and stamped over the stencil. I love that the addition of the circles added depth to the background and it made for a happy, bright background when I removed the stencil.
Lastly, I inked the sentiment from Hero Arts with black Memento ink and stamped it in the corner.
Stamping over your stencils is a great technique to get more mileage from your collection.
I think this would make a great card for a guy.
Adding my card to these challenges:
Little Red Wagon- BIRTHDAY THEME
CASology- REPEAT
The Male Room- SONG TITLE
Through the Craft Room Door- ANYTHING GOES
Use Your Stuff- ANYTHING GOES
Thanks so very much for coming by and taking a look.
Supplies: stamp- Hero Arts/ stencil-Stencil Girl (circle tile)/ Distress ink/ Memento bl
