Happy Little Stamper June Stencil Challenge...

Hi! I am back with brand new inspiration for this month's HLS Stencil Challenge.

I created a card with a stencil and Brushos. This is a twofer as I got two cards out of one panel.

I started with a large piece of watercolor paper and taped the Sunflower stencil by CrafTreat on top. I sprinkled the Brushos on top and sprayed with water. I used yellow, green, orange and red Brushos. Once the paper was dry, I replaced the stencil and lightly inked the petals with red dye ink and the flower center with brown dye ink.

I cut the paper into half, getting two card panels. The sentiment is from a very old stamp set which I stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I trimmed my panel and popped it up on a dark brown mat with foam and then I adhered the whole thing to a kraft card base.

Here is another look at the completed card.

Here are both the cards.

 

I hope you liked my card. I look forward to your beautiful creations in the HLS gallery. Do visit the blog for some more inspiration by my teamies.

Happy Little Stamper April Stencil Challenge...

Hi! Welcome back to another stencil challenge at Happy Little Stampers. 

I used the Wonderful Wreath stencil to create this card.

I placed the stencil over a piece of watercolor paper and simply painted with my Zigs through the openings. I used light brown, rust and dark green pens. After the coloring was done, I spritzed the paper with the mister and let it air dry. 

To add more interest I rounded the corners and also cut the panel with a large circle die.

The sentiment is from the Altenew Lovely Ornaments stamp set. I stamped and heat embossed it with copper embossing powder. To finish, I added some dots with 3D paint.

I hope you liked my card and will create something beautiful for this challenge. You can link your creations to the HLS gallery. Please don't forget to visit the other DT who have some incredible inspiration for you. I look forward to visiting you in our gallery.

I created this card for a friend who recently celebrated his birthday. His wife threw a surprise party for him. And all the guests signed on the card.

I used the stamp and die set from the Altenew Dynamic Blossoms CYL kit for the blooms.
