Four Squares

Welcome
Here's another new for April stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called
I decided to use it to make a monochromatic card.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and put the Four Squares stencil over that, centering it onto the cardstock.
  • Next, I inked it up using Peacock Feathers, Tumbled Glass, Blueprint Sketch and some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide inks. 
  • I removed the stencil and splattered with my white Posca pen, then set aside to dry.
  • I inked up a scrap piece of white cardstock using the same colours as mentioned above, then die cut the sentiment.  I die cut the sentiment shadow from a piece of vellum and glued the two together.
  • I glued the stenciled card front onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.  
  • I glued the sentiment into the center and added a dark blue gem for the dot on the 'j'.

Here is the stencil I used:
