Hey crafty friends, how are you? I’m popping in today with some more inspiration for this month’s Craft and Connect challenge! If you haven’t played along already, you can find all the details here.
This month, the theme is stencils – you can do anything you like with them: ink blending, using stencil pastes, double stencilling (using two stencils together, one over the other), stencilling over heat embossing, layered stencils… the list goes on! Let’s see how creative you can be!
For today’s project, I have created a fun watermelon card and matching bookmark using some layered stencils from Taylored Expressions. I ink-blended the watermelon colour through stencil one, added black glaze pen with stencil 2, and then created my own coloured glitter paste to apply through stencil 3!
For all the details, please check out the video I’ve popped up on YouTube today! Here’s the link:
