Use A Stencil

 

Hello everyone, thanks for your visit. I hope you are well and staying safe from this dreadful virus.  Today we are starting our next challenge at Sparkles Monthly Challenges.  Tammy has chosen  for us #134 Use A Stencil. Please visit the blog for details and to see the inspirational creations by the design team.  I had great fun with this challenge, and yes I was challenged for I don't often use a stencil, I have loads, as you can imagine, but I rarely use them, so I say thanks to Tammy for the challenge. Amongst the box of stencils I have, I found this adorable small circle one, which if I remember was a free gift in a magazine but it was a long time ago, and I hadn't even taken it out of the sealed packet.  I secured a square of white card to my work area, and with 2 in 1 glue I secured the stencil to the centre of the white card. I used DI Chipped Sapphire to colour the stencil.  I had to be so gentle with the little prongs, more a stipple than a brush technique. I then die cut the stencil and placed it on a die cut circle of glittered silver card. Set onto a white sq card, on a square of the glittered silver card. A few crystal gems and a die cut sentiment added. I hope you like it, and you will be inspired to go and use a stencil.
