Stenciling

 Time for a new biweekly challenge at Allsorts.  Val has chosen the theme of
stencils and of course anything goes is also acceptable. 

 

I used a stencil by AALL & Create: Cascading Dots.  I chose several
colors and stenciled them one at a time, shifting the stencil each time.  I 
added  a happy birthday die and background from Altenew, two
circle dies and a die punched star.  I always need masculine cards. 
 
Then I misted my stencil and set it on a piece of white card 
stock and got the lovely dotted paper below.  I die cut it
with a window die by Pawsitively  Pawsome Designs and
layered some coordinating flowers from My Favorite Things 
and a hello die from Scrapbook.com.  I used colors opposite
on the color wheel and liked how this came out.

 
I could not waste the leftover frame and purple pieces so I 
stenciled a background on vellum with the same stencil and 
added it to a white base and layered it up with more die
cuts as named above.
 

It was great to get three cards from a fun crafting time.

Please join us at Allsorts for a chance to win the prizes below:
