The theme this month has been chosen by the lovely Nancy who's set us the task of 'Use A New Stencil'
So perfect for you to get out the Christmas pressies and start stencilling!
My only problem was which one of my new stencils to use...... 😄😄
In the end I chose a Creative Expressions mini stencil and did a mono print using Fossilized Amber and Mowed Lawn DI's.
This colour combo cheered me up and made me think of Spring - although I don't dislike Winter at all, I sometimes wish the long dark nights weren't quite as long and dark!
The cone flowers are a Sizzix die painted with watercolours.Our Guest Designer this month is Arlene and she and the rest of the Design Team have done some fab cards to inspire you - although with new stash AND the chance to win I bet you won't need any prompting!
Thanks for looking today - looking forward to seeing all your creations in the gallery!Linking also to Stamplorations Anything Goes Stencil challenge HERE

Yes Viv..this reminds me of spring with its lovely zingy colours. I guess it will be here before we have time to appreciate it! xx
I love the colours too, they do indeed cheer you up. There are so many stencils that work really well as a monoprint that I am going to have to use the technique more often xx
LOVE this card Viv! Gorgeous colours for your stencil monoprint background ... definitely this card screams Spring! I'm ready for it! :) Love the coneflowers tucked into the corner of the frame. Fabulous design, my friend! xx
Great stencil and love the colours, lovely die and design too.

what a wonderful 'trellis' monoprint of your stencil as the background for your sweet little cone flowers tucked into the corner of your framing! So pretty! xx
Such a pretty card, Viv! Beautiful monoprinting on the stencil and I love your color palette! Love the coneflowers, too...they're perfect! Barb xx
Nothing says spring better and yellow and green, Viv! I love your monoprinted background and those little coneflowers!
Love your monoprint stenciled background and choice of colors, Viv. The stencil monoprint technique is one of my favorites:-) Your die cut and watercolored daisies look so pretty with your background. TFS my friend. Hugs..Nancy
Lovely fresh colours and the cone flowers just set it all off nicely.
Great idea for framing the background! Those little flowers are the perfect touch!
Spring on a card and what an artsy and fabulous effect from the monoprinting. A beautiful card Viv x.

So pretty Viv and love the green and orange which goes beautifully with the pretty cone flowers and love the framing and the way the flowers spill out of it, and the sentiment in a lovely shade of green too. x
Love this card Viv, the colours are definitely springlike. Great results from the monoprinting too xx
