CAS Wall Flowers

A CAS card for two May challenges CAS Stencil Challenge to use layered stencils and Joy of Sets Tic Tac Toe Challenge where I took the top line of Birthday-CAS-Green.

I've taken a little eight petal daisy stencil and distress oxide inks sponging four times in all with a different colour, turning the stencil slightly each time so the petals layer over each other.  I used two shades of green (evergreen bough/cracked pistachio) with yellow (squeezed lemonade) and lilac (shaded lilac) and created three flower heads.


Next I lightly brushed tattered rose distress ink over a wall stencil fading out the colour to one side, then over-layed a small dotty stencil and with a finger dauber added more of the same ink to give a darker pattern on some of the bricks but still keeping it subtle.


Added doodled stems with a black fine liner pen and some random accent dots too.  Stamped a sentiment and adhered three sequins to embellish which catch the light.  Panel mounted on a dark green card base.

I've used - A6 card base
Claritystamp stencil card
Various stencils
Distress Oxides & Ink
Woodware sentiment stamp

  5. Love all the stencil sponging you've done, Steph! I would never have thought to stamp the sentiment over the top of the flowers, but it looks SO much better than if you had stamped it out in the open space. It really works! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us at Double Trouble!!! -Donna
