CAS Stencil Challenge Reminder


Hi there ~
Today's card is to remind you that there is still time to join us at the CAS Stencil Challenge - Baby Wipes! As always, this challenge is open until September 24th ~


I must say, this is a really fun technique! I started by blending 4 DOX inks in autumn colors, then placed my Spotlight Stencil on an angle. I folded a baby wipe and gently wiped the color until it faded out as much as possible without wearing out the cardstock. I allowed it to dry overnight, then embossed the stars and sentiment in silver EP and die cut the faerie. This card is 5x7". 

Come on over to the CAS Stencil Challenge Blog and check out all the fabulous cards by my teamies and our wonderful GD, Sarah, and don't forget we have video tutorials showcasing this technique! We would love to see your take on this challenge!


Thanks so much for stopping by,

Adding your baby wiped spotlight stenciled image over your beautifully sponged Fall colored background really adds a beautiful subtle background for your heat embossed stars and perfectly placed stamped fairy. The heat embossed sentiment was the perfect final touch. TFS Barb. Hugs..Nancy
