Stencil Sunday

Hello,

Over on the Paperartsy blog they are up to topic 12 for the challenge which this time is stencils.

Here is a giant size 12 tag I created for the challenge which was very much inspired by Leandra's tag in the video:

Created the background using a store card and Fresco paints in Wisteria, Hint of Mint and Ice Blue.

Stamped the flower stalk from Lin Brown set ELB16 then used the co-ordinating stencil to colour the flower head using Pansy, Snowflake, Bougenvillia and Rose. Then stamped the flower head, not perfect which is a bit annoying but close enough I guess!

Next I added Grunge Paste tinted with Guacamole through another Lin Brown stencil, once dry I added some Hey Pesto in places. I also coloured the flower stem with Hey Pesto.

Some more stencilling in the background using white paint and a couple of TCW stencils including the little butterfly done with the leftover flower head paint.

A bit of extra stamping with the little circle stamps from the same plate using purple ink.

I stamped the quote out from ELB05, cut it out, edged with black and added to the tag.

Finally I edged the whole tag with black ink to finish.

Biggest tag I've ever made lol but I kinda like it :)

    It looks fabulous Claire! Love all the stencilling and I like the slightly offset stamped flower. It reminds me of a style of printing from magazines.
