Here is the Challenge for this month:
If like me, you also went hmmmm … Loll has shared videos at the CAS Stencil blog that make it clear - I'm sure you'll enjoy watching them as I did.
Here is where those lessons from Kristina Werner took me...
My newest addition to my Spellbinder dies helps to put a wonky highlight to my DOX blended-simply-over-stenciled panel.
This little leave stencil is one from the very first stencils I ever purchased from JoAnn's at least 5 years ago!
I know the CAS Stencil design team will do a much better job of showing you how to stencil over a colored background than I have … let's go see, shall we? Thanks for the visit!

ReplyDeleteLuck had nothing to do with your win, Michele...we LOVED your card! I'm also loving how you used your DOX inks for your stenciled leaves and your blue bloom really pops here, my friend! Clever idea to angle your debossed Venise Lace die to showcase your focal point, too...Another really fabulous card! Thanks so much for being our Guest Designer for May :)
