Hello once again. I have had a little play with some new layering stencils from The Greetery:

This was actually quite fiddly to do as I wanted different colours on the same stencil layer. It did take me quite a while for each layer, and the very small blending brushes did come in handy for all those smaller places. I used some low tack tape to mask areas off which were near to each other, but generally had fun with the colours.
I used Pinkfresh Studio inks, as they come in four shades of each colour-way – which also made things a little easier.

The sentiment is from Concord & 9th. It is a sentiment which is joined together, and instead of cutting the stamp apart, I used tape to mask off each of the words at a time, to stamp in the spaces. I really had to concentrate to remove the tape before stamping – a mistake I have made on previous cards – and one you don’t really forget!
I then cut the panel down slightly, matted it with a red card stock, then added to a white card base.
No additional elements, no bling, no gems – I think this looks good just as it is.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
12 Months Of Christmas – anything goes Christmas, option to use chevrons not taken
Peace On Earth – Christmas anything goes
Inkspirational – seasonal
Lil Patch Of Crafty Friends – anything goes
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge – stencil it
Crafty Catz – anything goes – option to use dies/punches not taken
Ally’s Angels – anything goes

This is an amazing card and I definitely wouldn’t have had the patience to make it. You did a fantastic job getting the colours as you did.

BEAUTIFULLY done! I’m sure it took some time but so worth it! GREAT job! And even though it was a lot of fussing around with the stenciling then the sentiment separation, it sure turned out FABULOUS!!! Awesome inspiration my friend! Don’t forget to share this beauty in our Stencil Fun challenge too … you still have 3 days.
Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Peace On Earth challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.
