AAA Birthday Game #46 - Use a Stencil(s)

 

Hello Crafty Friends,

Can you believe it's February already?
The good thing is that it means it's time for a new challenge at AAA Birthday, and this month we want you to use your stencil(s).

I love stencils!

They're easy to use, very versatile, you can use them in so many ways and with so many different mediums, and they're inexpensive. You can even make your own. Can it get any better?!

I often make my own stencils, but for this card I have used a gorgeous stencil by Vicki Boutin which I ink blended through using Distress Oxides. 

Products used
Stencil: Color Study - Fresh Mixed Media Stencils by Vicki Boutin/ American Crafts
Inks: Distress Oxide Ink "shaded lilac", "salvaged patina", "twisted citron", "squeezed lemonade", "dried marigold" and "kitsch flamingo"
Die: PY111 "Grattis" by PY Hobby
Papers: Neenah Classic Crest - Solar White and "Black & White Stripes 6x6 Paper Pad" by MFT 
Embellishments: Enamel Dots "Transparent" by Simple and Basic

Here's the cue card for February

I do hope you'll join us in this fun challenge, as I can't wait to see your stenciled birthday cards!

Take care, keep crafting and have fun!
