The challenge at Just Us Girls is quickly becoming a favorite. This week is Word Week and the word is: LEAVES.
I've been playing with stencils recently. Another post is coming later this week with two new techniques using stencils, but this one was created with a more traditional technique: ink blending. It's a quick and easy way to create a card.
Appropriately for this challenge, the name of the stencil is "Tumbling Leaves" by Simon Says. The full stencil would fill a larger square card, but I used just a portion of it for this A2 card. I first applied some Squeezed Lemonade (Distress Oxide ink) onto the leaves, and then added Fern Green (Wendi Vecchi Make Art dye ink.)
The stencil was layered onto a piece of Gina K Asparagus cardstock and then added to a cardbase of Simon Says Fog cardstock---both are faves. The sentiment comes from one more favorite: The Greetery's "Sentiment Suite" series--in this case, "Thinking of You."
