Nancy is our host this month and she has challenged us to try a fun technique - 'Tracing (outlining) Stencils'.
This stencil is a Julie Fei-Fan Balzer design from The Crafters Workshop, called 'Lotus Blossom'.
I used all of the layers and then outlined the the lotus with a black marker. I sponged the circle with Delicata Gold ink and the rest with Distress Inks, using make up blending brushes.
The sentiment is from Kaisercraft.
We have three very talented Guest Designers this month! Greta, Sandie and Kia. You can see their cards and find more inspiration over on the CAS Mix Up Blog.
I'm also sharing at the following:-
