Guest Blogger @ Artistcellar

When Lisa sent me an email to invite me to be Guest Blogger at Artistcellar, I was super duper excited. Weeks later, I received two awesome stencils - Roadmap and Square Rose. Here's my take one on a card and the other on a layout

For the layout, I started off with a Studio Calico paper, applied texture paste over the Roadmap stencil at different parts of the 12x12. I let it dry overnight and then misted with a couple of Dylusions (Lemon Zest/Pure Sunshine/London Blue/Crushed Grape) using the same stencil. I did a some flourish stamping from Stamper Anonymous stamp. I figured to bring out more of the Roadmap texture I applied Distress Ink Pumice Stone and Walnut Stain onto the The Crafters Workshop mini brick stencil. My tool for the inking is cosmetic sponge. There certainly was some cool effect with the inking that brought the Roadmap texture more prominently. I love the stencil to the last bit, awesome stuff from Artistcellar!

*Inspired by Let's Scrap card sketch 5-2-11

For the card, I did a simple misting of Dylusions Fresh Lime and Cut Grass over gorgeous Square Rose stencil. Then I topped it up with a stamp from Technique Tuesday.
