It's Stampendous Dreamweaver Thursday and today we're putting a spell on you with some stencil magic. If you look at my pumpkin, it's almost hard to believe it's a stencil! Originally I was going to turn it into a jack-o-lantern but it was just so pretty I couldn't make myself do it! So, here you have a pumpkin that's ready to turn into some yummy pumpkin pie. At least it is in my mind! I love the soft look of the chalk inks I've used. Here's my card for today:
Here's what I did to create this card:
Tape stencil onto white paper and ink stencil with sponges
Using a flat brush, fill in white stencil lines on pumpkin
Trim stenciled piece closely and add antique linen distress ink all around and then vintage photo on edges
Create an A2 card base with a tent fold from green cardstock
Trim patterned papers to fit as shown
Create a mat for stenciled image and edge with vintage photo distress ink
Adhere all layers as shown
Tie a double bow and attach to card front
Here's a list of my teammates that are playing along today, I hope you'll leave them some love:
