CAS May Stencil Challenge: Layered Stenciling

Time for our CAS May Stencil Challenge: Layered Stenciling hosted by Hilary  
Hilary has provided several video tutorials if you need ideas plus our 
awesome card samples by our creative Design Team and talented 
Guest Designer, Greta.




I have been looking forward to this challenge.  I need to do more layering of my
stencils.  A great way to use more awesome stencils:-)
Remember to keep your cards Clean and Simple.

 Out of Chaos Comes Creativity! 

I played with a never before used "Rubber Bands" Stencil designed by 
Helen G for ARTplorations.

I sprayed the back of the stencil with Pixie Spray and then placed the stencil over
Strathmore Mixed Media paper and secured with a couple pieces of painters tape,

Then used make up brush to blend Distress Oxide Inks: Worn Lipstick, 
Picked Raspberry, Candied Apple and Wilted Violet.
Next used TCW Tiny Circles Stencil to add tiny circles in the different colors.
Then removed Rubber Bands Stencil.

Die Cut with CUTplorations "Basic A2 Panels Nesting Dies" to get a beveled edge for my panel.

Attached panel to SU Whisper White 100# card front layer that I had die cut 
with same A2 Dies set.
Then attached layers to Whisper White card base.

Added Visible Images "Creative Chaos" popped up sentiment and Done!

I loved how my Quick Clean and Simple card turned out.
We would love to have you join our May Stencil Challenge.  Awesome challenge, Hilary!

Stay safe and creative, dear friends.  You have until the 24th to play along:-)  Hugs..

  6. So artsy and beautiful Nancy! I love how you got the crisp, clean lines of white from your rubber band stencil. Looks awesome. Of course, the mini tiny circle stencil is one of my favs and I love how it contrasts with the bold white lines. Great work, my friend! xx
