Layered Stencils- Thanks

Good Morning
It's the end of the month already but I wanted to post one more card I made doing some fun stencil layering using 2 of the newly released stencils for June called:
from A Colorful Life Designs

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Open Coils stencil onto my Make Art Station and then inked it up with some Broken China Distress Oxide ink.
  • I left that stencil in place, then put the Connected Cogs stencil over that and inked again with some Villainous Potion DOX ink.  It created such a fun, layered look.
  • I took the stenciled panel and die cut the middle area using the Zig Zag Stackers, creating a frame.
  • I glued the inside of the frame die cut onto a piece of purple cardstock.  
  • Next, I added foam tape all along the outside edge of the the frame die cut, and placed it over the middle area.  It gave so much interest to the card front.  I glued that onto a white A2 sized card base.
  • I die cut the 'thanks' with some white cardstock, then glued it onto the white word shadow.  I used some foam tape to pop it over the card front.


Here are the stencils I used:

What pretty colors for a unique stencil! It reminds me of batik fabric which is so fun this time of year. Thanks for playing at Just Us Girls!!!

The Open Coils stencilling with the added Connected Cogs within works brilliantly Karen, and I love the blue and purple conours with the white on purple 'Thanks' and also the purple background mat to continue the look...an eyecatcher! x

Who would think you had cogs on this very effective card. Great use of the stencils and colours. x
