Stencil Tracing (CAS Mix Up reminder)

Hi there. Just here to remind you about this month's CAS Mix Up Challenge. It's a Stencil Challenge this month.

Nancy is our host this month and she has challenged us to try a fun technique - 'Tracing (outlining) Stencils'.

I used an old stencilled background which had been made by sponging acrylic paint over the stencil.  I placed the stencil over this and traced with a black fineliner.  I added the butterfly die cut, made with a Penny Black die and smooshed background. I decided to doodle around the edge of the butterfly to tie it in with the tag. 



You can find more inspiration over on the CAS Mix Up Blog, along with some links to videos.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog! I love to read your comments:)

    Love the watery appeal to these "happy" vibrant colours. Tilting the panel adds to the design too.

    Fabulous colours for this adorable tag, Jenny! What a great idea to trace over a stencil monoprint piece. I'm going to give that a try! And I love how you doddled around the butterfly to tie it all together. xx

    Tracing over a stencil monoprint is something I must try now Jenny - I love the effect you have here and that butterfly is amazing - it pops off the background!

    Love your tracing thru your stencil onto your acrylic monoprint stenciled leaves, Jenny. Adding doodling around your bright butterfly was the perfect embellishment to your artsy tag card. TFS my friend. Stay safe and Creative. Love and Hugs...Nancy

    I love how you sponged the acrylic paints over the stencil and then traced around it. A striking effect and a fabulous card Jenny x.

    Love the artsy look to this. The colours look so pretty behind the stenciled background and I like how you've doodled around the edge of the butterfly too xx
