October CAS Stencil Challenge



Hi there blog friends ~ It’s time for a new challenge at CAS Stencil! Our Guest Designer is Gundi and our Hostess for October is Loll, who has chosen ‘Patterned Paper’ for our technique.


Funky Fossil Designs Stencils have become a real favorite of mine, so I chose one of my newest stencils called 'Beauty in Profile' for this card. Because it's such a large image, I kept my design very simple...I sponged it with Tumbled Glass DOX ink, then sprayed the image with Shimmer Spritz to add sparkle. I added a few clear gems and the sentiment. I apologize for the small font on the embossed sentiment...it says: {Love} 'you so much'. Lastly, I matted the striped paper to a grout gray base, and this card was complete!  

I rarely use patterned papers, and I really enjoyed playing with them for this project ~ There's lots of Design Team inspiration over at CAS Stencil Blog  - as well as from our talented Guest Designer, Gundi ~ And, don't forget there are also a few links to video tutorials. You have until the 24th to link up your card...I hope to see you there!

Thanks so much for stopping by,

This is so lovely, Barb, and your striped paper matches the gray cs perfectly. I have trouble matching grays.
