ARTplorations Hop - Day 2



It's Day 2 of the ARTploration Hop.  Isn't it fun the techniques you can do with stencils!

For my card today, I used the Flutterby Stencil.  I used a light gray for the background, and then just did regular sponging for the focal image.  I filled in the image with a couple of Copics, and used the Celebrate stamp set for my sentiment.





Okay, you know the drill.  You can see the other DT cards HERE over on the STAMPlorations Blog.  Be sure to comment for a chance to win a prize!



Thanks for stopping by~

Awesome card and great way of playing with diecutting and stenciling the small and greyish butterflies. Colors on big butterfly are outstanding and the sentiment is fantastic and very nicely hand cut.
