I've just loved this last week of really intentional work with my stencils. Hopefully I will be able to keep it up and use them more regularly! I'm starting out on the right foot by incorporating a stencil in my Friends with Flair card.
I used the SC Sunburst stencil and incorporated both inking and misting. I first used a sponge dauber to add a pale yellow to the rays. Then I went over that with some Dylusions ink spray.
I really wanted to accentuate the rays and tie them in with the stamped image which is a little darker, so I just freehand doodled some extra lines along the rays.
The image was stamped with Versafine and I added color highlights using a water brush.
I have to say the one thing I'm finding and loving is that in using stencils, I am able to make a really high impact card without a whole lot of work/time.
Thanks for coming by and have a great weekend!
