TCP #365: Stencils Reminder

Have you played along with the stencil challenge over at The Cat’s Pajamas yet?

I don’t know about you, but freehand watercoloring is not my fortè.  For this design, I wasn’t thrilled about the thought of freehanding a water look and getting it to look quite right.  Then, inspiration struck as I realized I had the perfect stencil to do the job!  Enter the Great Outdoors Stencil.  I used pearlescent watercolor paints as I wanted a slightly shimmery, wet look.  I chose to use green, blue and gray for colors.  Once the paint was dry, I stamped the sentiment directly on the water color paper.  The finished panel was popped up on the card base with foam adhesive for dimension.

Be sure and play along with us by the end of the month for your chance to win a $50 gift voucher to the online store!

Happy Stamping!
