Let's Get Creative

Good Morning
How fun is this! 
I used the newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called 

I enjoyed creating this one and here's what I did.
  • I decided to go with a 'rainbow' theme and began by placing the Nautilus Swirl stencil over the outside edge of my white cardstock. I inked with some Fossilized Amber, Ripe Persimmon, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet and some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink.
  • I lifted the stencil, moved it to the side and repeated the process with the same colours.
  • I splattered the panel with my black Posca pen and set it aside to dry.
  • When it was dry, I stamped the sentiment and clear heat embossed it to help make it pop against the colourful background.  
  • I glued the panel onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto a piece of purple the finally onto a A2 sized card base.
  • I added some black gems around the sentiment to finish off my card.

Here is the stencil I used:

Thanks for taking a look.

This Nautilus Swirl stencil is great Karen and I love the way you have used with some a pretty mix of colours, and great contrast with the black stamped sentiment and black gems to finish. x
