Hello! Popping in with a card that I made for the current Just Us Girls challenge which is anything goes with stencils. I recently purchased two different stencil sets from PaperTrey Ink and really wanted to get something made with both and I actually did! I'm thinking I will share the other card for the November JUGs stencil challenge. Anyway, let's look at what I made.
Another recent PTI purchase was the Reflections: John 14 stamp set. I thought it went perfectly with the background that I stenciled using the PTI Leafy Garden stencil set. I used Altenew inks in Frayed Leaf and Sugar Kelp. Sugar Kelp is a dark green with a brown undertone that I thought would look good with Frayed Leaf and I was right. I love it. After all that stenciling I didn't want to totally cover it up so I used vellum for the verse and heat embossed it in gold as I thought that would look nice with the green inks I chose to use. The stenciled panel and the embossed panel were die cut with PTI Rounded Rectangle Stitched dies. For additional interest I wrapped a piece of twine around the larger panel and secured it in place with washi tape. I then tied a bow with the same twine and glued it in place. The vellum panel was place on top using foam squares which I discovered don't show through when placed behind the lettering! Love this verse and love how the card turned out. Simple, but effective!
Awesome! Your stenciling is beautiful, yes, a great choice of colors. PTI has some of the best verses and your card is proof, and shows why. Very beautiful, Rosemary!
