Guess what?!! I am a Surprise Party Guest for October and November at Seize the Birthday...and I couldn't be happier to be asked! Use a Stencil is the current topping so I immediately grabbed a favorite shells stencil for my card.
The stencil is made by The CraftersWorkshop (TCW) and it is 12" x 12" with several different shells included. On the front of my A2 card base I ink blended with Ranger Distress Oxide inks in Dried Marigold, Spun Sugar and Abandoned Coral. Then I die cut my sentiment four times, ink blended one of them, and stacked them so they would stand above the card. I added some sparkle like you see in the sand at the beach by using sequins...and it was complete!
I hope you will join us for some stencil fun and see all the creative ideas using this topping!
See you soon!
-Carol

Welcome Carol to the team at Seize the Birthday. I love your soft look of the stenciled card. I am reminded of the pink inside of a sea shell. Great card and I am looking forward to seeing more.
This is gorgeous! I love the look of your ink-blended shells with the matching sentiment. Welcome to the birthday party!

Thankyou for being our guest Carol, love the gorgeous shell colours you've chosen. I never think to use 12 x 12 stencils on a card but this looks fabulous, Cathy x
Stopping by for a proper Welcome! I am thrilled to have you guesting with us the next two months! This card is so pretty and perfect for us Florida girls! Enjoy your Sunday!
Welcome Carol!! I have several old 12x12 stencils and it has never occurred to me to use them on a card. This is so pretty, especially for this Floridian. I can't wait to see more of your creations in the next couple of months.
