Friends Make it Better

Welcome
Another card ready to go out to a friend during this time of 'social distancing'.
I am playing with my Vicki Boutin acrylic paints again and used the same technique I show in yesterday's video.
To see that short video, go here.

I began by dabbing some acrylic paint onto my card panel and using my stencil paste spreader, I moved the paint around in a circular motion.
When the paint was dry, I stamped the sentiment and flowers using my Misti.  I heat embossed it with some clear powder and added some black splatters to add interest.


Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
Hope you are keeping safe and sound.

Adding my card to these challenges:
Artsy Divas- ANYTHING GOES

Supplies
Stamps- Nature Flowers (Art Journey); Friends (Penny Black)
Ink- Versafine; acrylic paints
Paper- heavy white (Scribes Nook)
Accessories and Tools- Misti (My Sweet Petunia); stencil paint spreader
EDITED:  It is called Deco Foil Stencil Pat
