I decided to pull out some old Plaid stencils I had in the basement. My challenge to myself today, was to create some new cards using stencils, both plastic and brass. I like using other craft tools in different ways. So first I decided to use the sun stencil and create a background. I mixed yellow and orange inks together using makeup sponges. I lightly pounced the stencil and came up with a beautiful background. Next, I thought I'd do a card for a child using the frog stencil. I used a few different color green inks. On my third card I thought I'd use some southwest color inks. I inked the lizard and then cut it out. And finally, on my 4th card I dry embossed the seahorse and then used the brass stencil and inked the seahorse so it would stand out.
