Patterned paper and a stencil.


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at CAS Stencil and Loll has chosen patterned paper as our theme this month. The design team and special guest have lots of wonderful ideas to inspire you, so I hope you can play along!


Here's the paper that I started with, or the part that's left anyway! It was a 12 x 12 paper from Kaisercraft that had icecream cones on one side and this pretty colour scheme on the back.


I used the Scribbles stencil by Tim Holtz and spread some gesso through it. Love the muted colours!
The diecut is one from Memory Box. The green background is also cut from the pp.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday has a think pink theme.

At Addicyed to Stamps & More it's anything goes.


Watercooler Wednesday also has an anything goes challenge.



Supplies:
Kaisercraft Party Time - Double scoop paper; Tim Holtz Scribbles stencil; gesso; Memory Box jotted script  die; Kaisercraft sentiment stamp, masked to use certain words, stamped in Versafine Clair nocturne and clear embossed.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

Simply beautiful stenciled with Gesso over your pretty patterned paper, Cathy. I love how your roses picked up the color from the paper and your the muted background from your gesso. So creative and inspiring, my friend. TFS Hugs..Nancy

Your stenciling looks lovely over your multi colored PP Cathy! Love the cream paste you used and the layered word die - SO pretty! xx

I love the white gesso through the pretty stencil over that lovely pink through blue pp Cathy and what a great idea to also use the paper as the under layer to the die cut sentiment. x

This is such a pretty card Cathy. The stencil looks amazing over the subtle coloured background paper. Love it.

LOVE your gorgeous stenciled flowers, Cathy. It's great that you showed the patterned paper you started from. What a difference with adding the gesso through the scribble flower stencil that gives you flowers in all different colours. Fantastic!! xx

Love the texture of the gesso through the stencil and the way the color shines through, Cathy! It makes the background look opaque! Love this!
