I don't know about you, but for me creating a clean & simple card that includes stenciling is quite a challenge. I'm embarrassed to even admit how many sheets of smudged messy stenciled cardstock ended up in the recycle bin during the making of this card.
But since Stencil is the theme at the CASology challenge, I remained persistent until I got the look I wanted.
Since STAMPlorations is sponsoring the CASology Challenge, I broke out my Gridlocked Stencil with kraft ink and used some new STAMPlorations sentiment builders CELEBRATE stamps.
The layout is this week's Mojo Monday Sketch.
It's also Stamps & Anything Goes for the STAMPlorations Challenge in May. They also have a CAS Card Challenge each month.
Awesome CAS card, Stephanie! Love how you partially inked the stencil. Happy to see your card in the STAMPlorations galleries :o)
Such a cool card. Love that brick background. Thanks for joining us at Mojo Monday!
Love the texture on your card! Thanks for playing along with the CASology challenge this week, Stephanie!
Great take on both challenges, Stephanie! LOVE how you have incorporated that woodgrain panel too. Thanks so much for joining us at CASology this week!
This would make a fab masculine birthday card, the kraft balloons work really well with the wood DP and stencil.
Thanks for sharing at STAMPlorations. 🙂
I love the layers on here! Thank you so much for joining the STAMPlorations CAS Challenge!
