Thinking of You for Paper Players #578

 Hello, it's Sunday! LeAnne has a new challenge for us at The Paper Players and you'll love the springy hues she chose. We've had some warmer days, and I feel happy getting out my floral stamps. 



I tried a new to me technique today, after watching Jennifer's fabulous video HERE, showing how to use stencils for inking a background, also adding pressure to deboss the design. I just had to try it! 

Here's a close look at the slightly raised texture of the leaves background. 


Using  white card stock I sponged pale ink onto the stencil, then ran it through my Die cut machine for the stencil ink press result.





I know you will enjoy the beautiful combo, I can't wait to see what you make! 

Please check out the team inspiration and join us. Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope have a great week!

Be yourself

          Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!

I could clearly see the raised texture immediately and it looks so pretty with your daisy bunch! I'm thinking spring, too, with some of the beautiful days we've had here lately. It's so nice to see your fresh and sweet reminder today, Cindy!
