I have to admit to having no idea where this card was going when I set out. And, funnily enough, it's entirely inappropriate considering the current situation. I hope you will forgive me but this was just how my brain went at the time.
Having chosen my stencil I was inspired by a recent Jennifer McGuire video to use a coloured base. I used Chipped Sapphire, Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers to ink my stencil and I'm so pleased with the result. After that I had to decide what to do with it. Having not bought any craft magazines for ages, I have to admit to going a bit mad this last week. My most recent purchase having a fabulous 'great outdoors' themed stamp set on the front. I chose a sentiment and a signpost stamp and created this card.
I am so pleased with the result. I didn't even feel the need to add bling. I know! It's so unlike me. And, having just noticed that I'd cut my paper down on one side and not evened the pattern on the other, I am going to pretend that it was a design feature and I'd meant to do it that way.
Anyway, off you go and find your stencils people. Unless you are a key worker (and God bless you and keep you safe if you are) then I'm sure you have nothing else to do. Lol.
Stay safe please and thanks for reading

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card and love the background you created.
ReplyDeleteA super card Dawn, a fabulous background. I don't think it is inappropriate, it doesn't have to be a physical journey.
