This is the Crackle Stencil from Lavinia. It makes a beautiful background. I ink blended three colours of Distress ink using my sponging brushes (Saltwater Taffy, Candied Apple, Vintage Photo). So happy how these colour look together. :) I added a black die-cut framed flower (retired), cutting a second layer of the flower and shaping with my stylus before popping up on top. To finish, I stamped the sentiment (retired) in black ink and added a silver pearl to the center of the flower.

ReplyDeleteYour beautiful stenciling with a fade-out effect makes the unique stencil pattern look so interesting, Loll! Adding Vintage Photo to the red inks adds depth to the colors. The black flower frame is striking against the beautiful background!
