Happy Friday Friends!
Over on Paper Playful, I spotted a fun sketch that I thought would work well for a new stencil I recently purchased from Scrapbook.com. I'm referring to the challenge over on the Try Stampin' - or Not - On Tuesday Challenge #573 and here is the sketch they are offering.
The stencil I've used is by The Crafter's Workshop and is called 'Holly Cardinal' (TCW997s). This is a 6x6 sized stencil and since I create A6 cards, you can see a part of the stencil was not used.
I used finger daubers and TH distress oxide inks for the coloring. I've used an artist brush with water to fill in color on the cardinal.
My sentiment is from a Marianne Design stamp set (#CS0980).
