Sending Happy Thoughts Your Way

Good Morning and Happy Saturday!
Today, I'm playing with 2 new stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called Air Jaunt and Classic Travel.
I paired these 2 stencils with each other to create a simple CAS card.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and positioned one of the elements of the Classic Travel stencil over my paper, centering it.  This stencil has 3 different element on it as you can see below.
  • Next, I inked it up with some Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink and a hint of some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink to add some shadowing.
  • I removed that stencil and positioned the Air Jaunt stencil around the earth image and inked that with some more Uncharted Mariners DOX ink.
  • I removed the stencil and placed the panel into my Misti to stamp the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.
  • I glued the panel onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.

Here are the stencils I used:
