 Amy Tan showed how to make a stencil and use it on her scrapbook page. So the first challenge is called Stencil It.
First, here is my card for the challenge.


 I don't have a stencil. So I used the negative of Jenni Bowlin banner stickers which came with Studio Calico January kits as stencil  and sponged inks to create my card. Here is the picture to show you.


I wanted to blend inks create an ombre of colours. My colours went from pink to rose red to red to red orange to orange to orange yellow. I have used Stampin' Up! inks and sponge dauber to sponge inks.
I have then trimmed my card stock, cut the banner edges and foam mounted the panel to the card base. I then used sentiment speech bubble and woman icon wood veneers also from Studio Calico to finish my card. Hope you like it:)

Thanks for visiting!
