Hi everyone, have you had a chance to play along with the CAS Stencil card challenge yet this month?
Our host is Robyn and she has chosen sprays to try with stencils. They can be any type of sprays or spritzes! This is a fun technique, so I hope you can play along.
I chose 3 shades of blue distress oxide sprays and the Tim Holtz stripes stencil. There is more variation in the colour in real life, but it's a bit hard to see in the pic.
I diecut one of the Tim Holtz wildflowers and cut it up to fit the circle window. I inked the pieces with versamark and embossed with blue lapis pearl powder.
Here's a closer look.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Monday where the theme is midsummer blues.
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday where it's also midsummer blues.
Work it Wednesday where the theme is to use Tim Holtz products.
and Addicted to Stamps & More where it's a CAS theme.
Supplies:
Tim Holtz stripes layering stencil; distress oxide sprays in 3 shades of blue; Tim Holtz Sizzix wildflowers die; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; Spellbinders circle die; versamark ink and Stampendous pearl lapis ep; Happy Little Stampers sentiment from doodled flowers; versafine ink & clear ep.
Thanks for visiting,

Gorgeous card, I thought from the first photo the flowers were black but oh my... that blue is electric and looks simply stunning x
Your card is beautiful, Cathy. I love the simplicity of the stencilling and the embossed flowers are stunning. xx
Love the stripe stencil you used here Cathy! what a great background you created for your beautiful shiny floral stems! xx
The stripes look great as a background to your TH wildflowers and love the blue embossing and the aperture design with the stitched rectangular edge. A super card Cathy. x
A lovely design Cathy, those metallic blue die cuts look brilliant against your stripy spray/stenciled background, fabulous card and thanks for having fun with sprays this month, hugs Robyn
Your stripey background is gorgeous Cathy! Perfect for those amazing lapis pearl flowers. I have that embossing powder but haven't used it very much ... need to pull it out. It really is a beautiful colour with a gorgeous pearl sheen. Wonderful card Cathy! xx

You got wonderful results with your stencil and spray. That blue embossing powder is so gorgeous.
That stenciled background is perfect for this gorgeous enameled die cut flower, Cathy! Love those shades of blue!
Great job creating that beautiful stripe background. That Lapis Pearl ep is gorgeous and your die-cut wildflower looks amazing. x
I don't think Tim's Wildflowers have ever looked more beautiful! Love this CAS card design! I'm not a CAS crafter, but I may have to give this a try! Hugs! Sara Emily
