Stencils are all the rage, so I tried my hand at it, inspired by Laura Bassen's card at STAMPlorations, which is using it for a CASE challenge. Since I don't have any colored paste, I used good old inks (SU yellow, coral, mint and rose) to try to mimic her pastels, although mine ended up a little bolder. I added a sentiment in mint and some dots on the butterfly die-cut to tie in into everything else.
I'm entering these challenges:
Butterfly Challenge #45 -- Butterflies + X is for Xanthine (a fancy word for yellow)
Stamplorations -- January CASE challenge
Simon Says Monday Challenge -- stencil it
Word Art Wednesday #217-- Anything Goes
So very pretty, Sandy. I like how you were inspired by Laura B.'s card. Thanks for joining us at CASEplorations this month.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card and I really like that sentiment.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very pretty and cheery card. Did you see my recent butterfly? That was to be yellow for this challenge but then I pretty much un-yellowed it with other colors. D'oh!
