Hooray Graduate

Hello and Welcome
Today's card features a new for June stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called

So, here's what I did to create my simple card.
  • I placed a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station.  I placed the Wild Rings stencil over the cardstock and inked it up with some Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink.  
  • Leaving the stencil in place, I used a small inking brush to ink just the insides of the circles with some Salty Ocean DOX ink to add more interest.
  • Next, I stamped the Hooray with some more Salty Ocean DOX and die cut it out.
  • I found some cardstock that was the same colour as the Salty Ocean and used that to die cut the image.  I glued that along the bottom of the stenciled panel.
  • I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • I used some foam tape to add the sentiment across the top.

Here is the stencil I used:
