Still not cute!

Hello there! How are you? I hope you are well and happy! I am posting over on the Countryview Challenges blog today - the challenge theme there this month is Anything but cute...you can link up your projects here.

My project today is a card - using stamps and stencils from aallandcreate. I have used 6x6-stencil words6x6-stencil compassaall-and-create-clear-stamp-set-12. Here's what I did .... I started by using the compass stencil and gold soft relief paste.


Once dry I set to and inked this up using distress inks in a variety of shades of green. I also did a little flicking with water.


Next I added mostly text stamps from the Tracy Evans stamp set plus a little stencilling using the other 6x6 stencil mentioned above.


Once happy I cut it down and mounted the picture - I also waited for a sunny day to take the picture of the card - I needed this really for the light I think!!


So there it is!

I do hope you can join our challenge this month! Hugs Rachel xx
