A Simple HELLO!

It's Stencil Week at Just Us Girls 

I made this background some time ago.

While I had this AALL&Create stencil inked

with LIndy's Magical's

I reversed it and used the remaining ink to

create the background.

Added some die cuts in bold bright colours,

some torn washi tape and a simple

STAMPlorations sentiment to complete.

Head over and see the last fabulous wow cards from

our August Guest Julie

and Talented Team.

You will be impressed and hope you 

then add yours to our Gallery.

I BIG THANK YOU Julie for 

sharing your fabulous cards with us this month.

For Someone Special!

It's our ever popular Stencil Week at 

 Just Us Girls and our Host is Bobby

 

I recently bought some new texture paste

and anxious to try it out. After I created my background with

yes Gecko Green Magical's

I got out my ARTplorations Bloom Factory stencil

and covered it with a good coating of paste.

I love the raised effect.

I then heat embossed the matching BF flower from the

STAMPlorations stamp set with Zing Aqua,

curled it and added some matching flower soft.

Sentiment is from STAMPlorations Fluttery

on to a MF die. Corner rounded

and attached to white card base.

A big Thanks to our July Guest Donna

for sharing her amazing talents with us.

Sending this over to The Paper Fun Day Challenge

It's Stencil Week at Just Us Girls and

this weeks Host is Bobby.

I love just simple stencilling and that is what 

I have done here inking up a couple in the background

 coloured firstly with Lindy's screamin' banshee black

which comes out with the most 'magical' colours.

The purple one on the right is AALL&Create

and the grey on the left - Kaisercraft.

Inked my TH flower with Versafine Clair Nocturne.

Added splatters to add a bit of colour

then framing and a Cecile touch on the side.

Die cut sentiment is Impression Obsession.

Adhered to SU card base.

Pop over and check out the last beautiful card 

our Guest Joaanne created for us 

and the Team's amazing variety then

 head off and play, adding yours to our Gallery.

Simple Stencil-ing and Stamping Two-fer

 I'm Host this week at Just Us Girls for our

Ever So popular Stencil Challenge.

I went CAS using Tim's Abstract Florals

and a cheapie stamp that looked a bit funky also

inking with his oxide inks in

Wilted Violet Villainous Potion Seedless Preserves

Fossilized Amber Spiced Marmalade Crackling Campfire 

Stencilling is from AALL&Create Geometric Grid

Sentiments are both from their stamp sets.

Attached to white and rust card stock.

Our Guest Wanda and the Design Team have gone all out

with great creativity with their stencils -

me I just enjoyed some simple playtime.

Thanks for visiting

Shine Brightly!

It's Stencil Time over at  Just Us Girls

and Vicki is our Host.

I started my background with

some Lindy's Magical's as I often do, adding some very fine gold shimmer.

Applying my  Peeking Dahlia's Stencil from ARTplorations

loading it up with Distress Grit Paste which gave it that rough look

then added  Art Alchemy Rust Brown Matte Wax

with my finger adding extra to the centre of the flower.

Tore around the edges and corner rounded.

Sentiment is from Tim's Small Talk.

Popped onto white card base to complete.

It's a little different look with the grit paste -

one I was happy with the result. What are your thoughts?

Head over and check out the stencil work from 

our Guest Jeanne and the Team.

Look forward to seeing yours in our Gallery.

For You!

It's our Fun Stencil Week at Just Us Girls 

hosted by Sue.

Here is how I played

I used AALL&Create Cracked Wall stencil

with Ranger texture paste and Lindy's Black Orchid Silver

The paste was rather soft and 

went behind the stencil so I continued to

cover it completely using my finger

which gave it a nice effect.

The flower die is fromTim's Wildflowers

Sentiment was inked with the same

Lindy's Magical's .

Added a strip of shimmery washi tape

to ground the flower.

Adhered to white card base.

Head over and see how Stephanie

created her stencil card. As it is the last challenge

of the month. A big Thank You to Stephanie as our Guest

for sharing her talents with us.

The Team have also been very creative

so head over and check them all out.

Hope to see yours in the Gallery.

Thinking of You.

It's our ever so popular Stencil Challenge at Just Us Girls

and Hosting is Carol M

My background piece is from my bits box

which I thought made a dramatic backing for

Tim's Abstract Florals

I got that set just before Christmas and

there is so much I want to do with it.

No colouring or adding an extra flower head

as there is enough with the 

AALL&Create stencil work and colourful background

and oh! the splatters.

Added my sentiment from the set,

corner rounding and adhering to

 SU Mossy Meadow card base.

This is Annette's last week as our guest

so head over and see her creation 

as well as the teams inspiration.

A big Thank You for being our Guest Annette.

Thanks for the visit.

A Simple Stately Stencilled Stag!

Lisa is Hosting our last challenge for the year at

  Just Us Girls and it is our Stencil Challenge.

I saw THIS card on Pinterest by Maria Fischer

and as I had both stencil and stamp 

both from STAMPlorations I cased her card.

Inked up the MM grunge background.

The stag stencil is a favourite and I had a bit of fun

with him this time round.

I started with transparent crackle paste

sprinkling over the top while wet with

Parisan Rosewood Artisan Powder.

Once the crackle was dry I brushed the

artisan powder lightly giving to a misty background.

To seal the stag I put the stencil back on

sealing with gloss gel medium.

Die cut the 25 with Tim's alphabet.

Finished with some sparkly washi tape.

Check out what our Guest Jenn

and the Talented Team created with their stencils

and hope to see yours in the Gallery.

We bid a sad farewell to our very talented Stephanie

stepping down from DT duties.

It has been such a pleasure to have played with you

as part of our team and wish you the very best.

Thank You.

I know we will see you pop in when you can.

Thanks also to our November Guest Jenn for

sharing with us this month.

As with each year we take December off

for time out to share the Holiday Season 

in our own way and be refreshed to start again

in the New Year.

Come back on the 2nd January to se what we have

in store for you.

Thank you for all your kind comments throughout the year.

Merry Christmas and 

Happy New Year!

AALL&Create thistle image would be.
