Our 'Use a Stencil' challenge at Try It On Tuesday has reached it's half way point of the fortnight tomorrow.
I needed a quick card for a friend who is definitely not into 'fussy, flowery and fancy' (her words not mine!) so made this.
It was intended to be a 'thinking of you' type of card without that exact sentiment if you understand me!
The stencil was inked with Twisted Citron.
The vases are from a Sizzix die set and I painted them with Distress Oxides - I watercoloured first then went over them using a dry brush to try and give some texture/depth. The orange one worked far better than the blue!
The stems were a gift from a friend and I cut them out with some Lime coloured card.
A simple quick CAS card - no frills or fussy just to let someone know if they were here I would give them a hug!
If you've not yet linked up to the challenge blog you still have another week to go!
'A is for Anything Goes' - and if you haven't a tickety boo what I am talking about all is revealed HERE on Dolly's blog!
Thanks for looking today. x
