Today Loll is launching the newest CAS Card Challenge - CAS Stencil! And I'm on the design team! - having moved over from their CAS Mix Up Challenge Team.
Our fearless leader, Loll, is the host this month and her challenge is to sponge on our stencils. There are several links to different stencil sponging techniques over at the blog - so be sure to check them out if you need some inspiration!
My card today is pretty straightforward. I used a beautiful stencil from Stencil Girl called Eve: A Modern Woman. The stencil is her full face - but to help keep my card CAS - I just sponged over half of her face onto a white panel using Wilted Violet Distress Oxide ink. Then I stamped the sentiment from Penned Elegance by PTI in black and added some little flower sequins to her hair and the sentiment.
So get out all those stencils you have and create a CAS stenciled card! You'll find inspirational samples by the Design Team and all the challenge details here.
Paper: White - PTI
Ink: Ranger Distress Oxide Wilted Violet, Hero Hues Black
Accessories: Eve: A Modern Woman Stencil - Stencil Girl, flowers - Simon Says Stamp, Tombow Glue.
LOVE this amazing stencil and how you've used only a portion of it Julia. And purple ... awesome! Great CAS design. Excited to have you as part of the CAS Stencil team, Julia! xx
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful and elegant stenciled woman and sentiment, Julia. Love your flower sequins for your only embellishment. TFS I am so happy to still be on the same DT with you, my friend. Hugs..Nancy
ReplyDeleteWhat a unique stencil and your sponging is beautiful, Julia. Off-the-edge is a favourite trick of mine for CAS designs, and especially with large images. Congratulations on a wonderful debut. Happy new year! xx
ReplyDeleteHi Julia, what a striking card! Love how you've offset the stencil, beautifully CAS, Cathy x
