An interesting technique for the
CAS Mix Up challenge this month.... Stencil Monoprint, so I've been playing about with stencils. I made this background with Distress Oxides on glossy photographic paper.... it works really well because the ink dries quickly. I inked up the stencil with wild honey, twisted citron and lucky clover, a bit of water misting and turned it onto the gloss card... using the DO inks gives you a soft finish until you take a baby wipe to it and out come all the bright colours. Because it's so bright I had fun trying to add elements to it. Decided finally to use a die cut leaf stem and finished off with a foam tape mounted stamped sentiment. I am also playing along with
Simon Says Wednesday challenge - Make your own background. Thanks for visiting and enjoy your day.
Love the fab image and great background.xxx
ReplyDeleteSo enjoyed reading how you did this fun technique on your fabulous card. The oxides look great on the glossy card and the green die cut leaves look perfect. You did so well not to slide the stencil on the glossy card and good to know the inks dry quickly, therefore reducing the seepage underneath....Always learning and thank you x Great addition to the gallery at The CAS Mix Up Challenge with this stunning vibrant card x.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous CAS card Robyn! Your stencil work looks wonderful, really striking.
