613 Avenue Create -April Anything Goes/Optional Twist use a stencil
Time for another great challenge over at 613 Avenue Create this month. The theme of the challenge is as always "anything goes" and our optional twist is use a stencil in your project.
This is my card I made for this project using a rubber stamp from my stash and stencil from my stash.
The unmounted rubber stamp I used I have had for probably 15 years and I have forgotten the name of the company that made it. The stencil also does have the company's name on it.
To create my card used my gel plate to create the background then I used the stencil with an assortment of Distress Inks to complete the background. The image was coloured with Copics, pencil crayons, A Wink of Stella, and Nova Dream Drops.
