CAS Mix Up Stencil Monoprint Challenge

Time for our Last CAS Mix Up Challenge for 2021.  Our Design Team will be taking December off to prepare for the Holidays:-)  I wish all our friends a very Merry and Healthy Holiday Season.

Thank you to all my followers,  who have supported me and shared wonderful thoughtful comments.

 Lolly is our very talented host for our CAS Mix Up Stencil Monoprint Challenge.
  We have fabulous CAS cards samples by our  
very talented Guest Designer Steph W (My Paper Corner)  and our Design Team. 
 You will be Inspired!!!  Have Fun!


Loll's Message
Stencil Monoprint is my favourite stencil technique.
You start by inking the stencil, spritzing with water or shimmer spray.
You turn it over onto a clean piece of card that can take water, pressing down with a paper towel to absorb any excess ink.

This gives you a negative image of your stencil.
Instead of colouring the design or image on a stencil, you are colouring the background.
I hope you enjoy this technique as much as I do.

I am sharing a close up of all the Lindy Magicals Gorgeous Shine 😎

I found this beautiful background in my monoprint stash:-)
I had reconstituted different colors of Magicals powder with water and smooshed
the T.H. Wildflowers stencil that I made using the T.H. Wildflowers Dies
and an acrylic sheet.  It worked great!

Thank you Lolly for hosting this awesome CAS Mix Up Monoprint Challenge.
 The shine from the Magicals and the Gold Foil Cardstock
behind the Monoprint image are Stunning.

I die cut the background with Reverse Confetti Lacy Scallop Frames.
Attached the SU Gold foil CS behind the background.
Stamped the STAMPlorations sentiment and popped up the monoprint image 
with craft foam onto SU Basic White 100# CS and Done!

I Loved the results!  We would love to have you join us 
at CAS Mix Stencil Monoprint Challenge.
You have until the 24th to play along:-)
Love and Hugs,

Supplies:
Stamps: STAMPlorations Tweet Love sentiment.
Paper: SU Basic White 100#.  Strathmore Mixed Media.  SU Gold Foil.
Inks: Magicals.  Archival Jet Black.
Accessories: Reverse Confetti Lacy Scallop Frames Dies.  Glass Mat.  T.H. Distress Sprayer.  Craft foam.
