Stencil it......again!

 As promised, my second card for Jingle Belles current challenge of using a stencil.  Still using a stencil from The Rabbit Hole Designs called overlapping circles.  


I created a panel using the stencil, peacock feathers, hickory smoke and faded jeans distress ink/oxides.  Sprinkled water and diluted white acrylic paint to create dimension.  Scallops and rectangle dies from Unity Stamp Co, along with the snowglobe (part of the 2021 Advent Calendar) and the sentiment (cheerful prancing).  I used a sketch from {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge #20.

Stencil it!

 Jingle Belles is working on a new prompt this time around.....using stencils!  Doesn't have to be a Christmas stencil....as you can see, mine isn't!


Stencil is from The Rabbit Hole Designs called Overlapping Circles.  Used Hickory Smoke, Faded Jeans and Peacock Feathers distressing.  Sprayed with some water, the sprinkled some diluted white acrylic paint on to create interest!  Used Scallops & Rectangles Nesting dies from Unity Stamp Co.  I used the smaller scallop to cut out the center of the stenciled panel, then placed a white cut piece inside.  I can now use the inside cut piece and outside "frame" to create another card!  Stay tuned for that one! :). The mouse is also from Unity....called Peppermint Kisses Mouse Gnome.  Colored with Tombow Art Markers and then fussy cut.  Sentiment was stamped with peacock feathers ink.  Added some sequins in a grey/graphite color.

Hope you enjoyed this cutie!!  More to come!
