Hello Sweet Friend


Hi there blog friends ~ It’s time for our March challenge at CAS Stencil! Our Guest Designer is the incredibly talented ‘Cat’ from Cat Luvs Paper and our Hostess for this challenge is Viv, who chose ‘Heat Embossing’ for our prompt ~



I’ve tried several techniques with my stencils, but this is the first time I used my embossing powders and I have to say that I really had fun with it ~  I started with my powder tool then applying Versamark to the stencil before sprinkling embossing powder to the wildflowers. I heat embossed the sentiment with gold EP and die cut 'hello' with gold cardstock.

I hope you'll grab your stencils and come join us at the CAS Stencil Challenge Blog for this unique challenge! Our GD Cat and my teamies have created some beautiful cards to inspire you...and don’t forget we always have links to a few video tutorials showcasing the technique for each challenge. I hope to see you there ~ the challenge closes on the 24th.


Thanks so much for stopping by,






Supplies:
Stamps: MFT - Sweet Sentiments
Dies: Altenew - Hello
Stencils: MFT - Wildflowers
Misc: Zing Embossing Powder (Powder); SSS - Ultra Fine Embossing Powder (Antique Gold); Pretty Pink Posh - Gold Sequins
