STAMPlorations May Stencil Challenge

Time for our STAMPlorations May Stencil Anything Goes Challenge.  I was inspired by the beautiful Springtime season😎  Hope you join us and check out the inspiring Stencil projects by our Design Team.

ARTplorations Bloomdalascopic 5 stencil

STAMPlorations Mixed Media Elements

 CUTplorations Circles All Over Texture Cover Plate

Clear Stickers Hello Spring

I began by die cutting the front of my SU Basic White 100# card base with the  CUTplorations Circles All Over Texture Cover Plate.  Next secured ARTplorations Bloomdalascopic 5 Stencil over white 100# cardstock using 3M Masking Tape.

Then I used i-Crafter i-Brush to blend the Distress Oxide Inks thru the stencils.

Used DOX inks: Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey, Wilted Violet, Shaded Lilac, Seedless Preserve and Worn Lipstick.  The DOX inks have a more muted tone than Distress Inks.

Placed image layer in MISTI and stamped Mixed Media Elements images using Archival Jet Black ink.

Then removed and die cut the stenciled and stamped image with a stitched circle die.

Popped up with craft foam and attached to card base.

Added  Clear Stickers Hello Spring sentiment to piece of white paper,  trimmed and attached to cardbase and Done!  Fun using 6 stamps from the Mixed Media Elements stamp set for the 1st time😊

We would love to have you join us at STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge.

Love and Hugs,

STAMPlorations Stencil Reminder

Already time for the STAMPlorations March Stencil Reminder Challenge!

Be sure and check out the inspiring stencil projects by our talented Stencil Challenge Team!

ARTplorations All Blooms Stencil. 

CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

Clear Stickers Spring Magic.  Shaker Blends Sequins.

When I blended the Distress Oxide Inks using the All Blooms Stencil for my March 1st STAMPlorations launch card I did not want to waste all the inks on my stencil so I spritzed 

the stencil with water and placed over Strathmore Mixed Media A2 card front 

and pressed with a paper towel to transfer the ink.  

I was pleased with the monoprint image,  so designed this card by die cutting the image 

with Cutplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

Using a larger frame from the Rectangle Nesting Dies,  I die cut a 

SU piece of Rich Razzleberry Core-dinations CS (ret) to frame the monoprint image.

Popped up the monoprint using white craft foam onto colored cardstock

and attached to SU Whisper White #100 card base.  

Added the Inspirations #1 Clear Sticker sentiment and a few STAMPlorations

Shaker Blends Sequins and Done!

Always love making Twofer projects when only planning one:-)

We would love to have you join us with your stencil project.

You have until the end of the month to play along!  Hugs..
