Hello and happy Tuesday. It's time for another challenge at CASology. This week, our cue word is
Stencil.
I used a stencil from Stamplorations to create a backdrop for my butterfly focal point.
To create greater interest in my stencilled area, I first sponged a light coating of Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink, then sponged the same ink color over the same area using the Stamplorations Stencil.
I am also entering this card at Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes.
Please head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from the design team.
Joyce (that's me)
