I had a new stencil that worked perfectly for this challenge...take a look:
I used Gina K's new stencil called Lush Leaves and ink blended Salty Ocean and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks over my piece of white cardstock. LOVE how the colors blend together!! I also used Gina K's Master Layouts #7 dies to turn my stenciled layer into a mini slimline card...I think this is one of my most used die sets lately as I am totally in love with the mini slimline size!
I stamped a small feather from another of Gina K's new stamp sets called Fancy Feathers in the same Salty Ocean and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks, and then stamped my sentiment (Gina K - It's All You) in black over the feather, before cutting it out with a circle die from the ML#7 die set. I added a few Mermaids Tail sequins (also Gina K) and a piece of black & white twine to finish off my card.
Lots of FABULOUS inspiration in BLUE & GREEN for you to check out from the DT right HERE. This challenge is open till the 28th until 9:00AM.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
I'm loving the beautifully stenciled background with those two colors Marcia. This is bold, yet clean and simple, and simply gorgeous!!!

These two shades work beautifully together, Marcia! Love this stencil and how you matched the sentiment up with the little leaf stamp!
ReplyDeleteThose colors blended so beautifully, Marcia. I love the way you did the sentiment - on a circle and then on a label. It fits perfectly on a slimline.
