Good Morning
Today's card is a fun one using a new for February stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called
Lots of possibilities with this one.
Good one for layering too and it's big enough for scrapbook pages.
So, here's what I did to create my card.
- I cut a piece of white cardstock and then measured to find the center point.
- Instead of laying the whole Spinning Sun stencil onto my cardstock, I laid just half of it onto the middle line that I had marked on the panel, then inked it up with some Cracked Pistachio and some Uncharted Mariner.
- I repeated that process until the whole piece of cardstock was inked.
- Using my white Posca pen, I splattered the whole thing and set aside to dry.
- I got out a scrap piece of white cardstock and inked that up with some more of the Cracked Pistachio and some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink and cut the sentiment from that. I splattered that as well. I die cut the sentiment shadow with some white and glued the sentiment into place onto that.
- I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base and used some foam tape to add the sentiment over the middle.

The Spinning Sun stencil looks beautiful in the pretty blue and green Karen, and finished with some pretty white spattering and a lovely large die cut sentiment. x
The way you designed the card makes the stencil look so different, Karen. You really do have a way with stencils. Thanks for sharing your wonderful card with us at Just Us Girls.
A stencil sensation in every way, from the colours to the sentiment! Wonderful to see you in the Just Us Girls gallery!
