It's time for a new challenge at CAS Mix Up.
This month we're using stencils.
Our hostess this month is Viv, and shes's chosen...
There are some video links at the challenge site if you're unsure
and our fabulous Design Team along with our very talented Guest Designer Pat,
have lots of inspiration for you.
For my card, I used this technique after seeing these cards.
I chose Fall colors to sponge on using the technique using the same colors
to stencil over. I love the soft, subtle background.
The branch, a gift from a special friend, was die cut from Copper Foil
and the sentiment was heat embossed with copper embossing powder.
I added a narrow mat of copper foil to bring it all together.
I hope you'll give Tone on Tone Stenciling a try and
join us at CAS Mix Up.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

You've outdone the inspiration dear friend. When I first saw this on the blog I was deeply impressed and in love with the variation of stencils used for this beauty. Not to say the copper die cut and framing are the perfect accent without stealing the show. Stunning! xx
Very attractive!
I sure hope President Trump will be okay.
