Hello Mums

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Darlene & Diane have another challenge that started this month....

Crazy is our fame - Stencils are our game.

Good luck in your latest endeavor, ladies!

My sweet friend Bobby inspired this card.

Now stencils aren't my favorite technique, but my stencil box would seem to

belie that fact.  LOL, I keep accumulating them, but then setting them aside and

forgetting about them.  Diane & Darlene are going to try to change that.

This will be an Anything Goes Challenge with an optional theme.

This month's option is Halloween Colors.

Another favorite challenge Color Hues is asking for Orange & Green this time around.

I used a NBUS stencil that a friend enabled me to buy, and sponged parts of it with 

Spiced Marmalade DOX ink.  When I was happy with the placement of the flowers, 

I added some Rusty Hinge ink to the centers.  Then I used another stencil for the leaves, 

moving it where I  thought I needed to fill in.  I went back in on the leaves with a bit 

of the orange ink that was left over on my mini blending brush.

I added a stamped, embossed and die cut sentiment from my stash and a 

sub-sentiment on contrasting cardstock that matches the outlining of the design piece.

Here's that shine.

Color Hues - Orange & Green
