Handmade Background #9

Hi and welcome to my blog. I have another background card to show you. I love working with stencils and I just love this layered stencil. I had 2 of these backgrounds in my stash. The other one was sponged with greens and blues. I thought this one was better for the month of May!


I used the first stencil layer that had more open areas and sponged various pinks and yellows in lighter shades of Oxide inks. I laid the next stencil on top of this and used darker shades of pinks and yellows. This is now my favorite stencil!

I found the butterfly image from Sparkle N Sprinkle in my image stash. I had stamped it on acetate and colored the back side with alcohol inks. I fussy cut it and added it to the card. 

I cut the Hello by Tonic out of black and salmon card stock and added it to the top of the card. Bits of ribbons were added to the bottom along with enamel dots.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!
