Mid Month Reminder - November CAS Stencil - Stencil Monoprint

I'm here today to remind you there is still time (until 11/24) to link up your CAS Stencil Monoprint card!  Linda is our host this month and here is her challenge:
I used another newly purchased stencil from Stencil Girls called Chinese Garden Koi.  I rubbed Ranger Distress Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade over the back of the stencil, spritzed with water, then flipped the stencil over onto a panel of water color paper.  

I pressed over the stencil with a paper towel then removed the stencil carefully from the panel.  I blotted the panel with another paper towel and dried with my heat tool.  

I cut down the panel to make it CAS and layered it over a white card base with foam dots.  
I added a Small Talk Sticker for the sentiment.
 You'll find a link to a technique video over at CAS Stencil as well as lots of inspiration from the Design Team -  please join us!  You have until 11/24 to link up your CAS card using this technique!



Paper:  water color paper - Canson, white - PTI
Ink:  Ranger Distress Fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade.
Accessories:  Chinese Garden Koi Stencil - Stencil Girls, Small Talk Stickers Occasions - Tim Holtz/Idea-ology, craft mat, water mister, paper towels, foam dots.

There's such a lovely warm glow to this card - I love the simplicity of the white fish against the burnished yellows.
