Sweet Wishes Friend by Nancy Penir

Hi! Nancy here, and today I'm sharing a card and a technique using your dies to create a stencil.

It's aways a plus to get extra mileage from your dies, here's how I did just that.

Poppy's new die, Winged Bird Collage is perfect for this technique. I die cut the bird image from a scrap of vellum, and inked it with Ranger's Distress Oxide Inks, on a piece of watercolor cardstock.

I added some Sheer Shimmer Craft Spray, which really brings out the intensity of the Distress Oxide Inks.

Here's a closeup of the watercolored panel that's been inked and Shimmer sprayed.

Hope you enjoyed this post today, and hope you give this technique a try. It's always fun to try new things!

Hope your day is extra crafty!

Morning Nancy, Oh Wow !! what a fantastic technique is this !! The colours are beautiful and the effect is like a 'soft focus', I absolutely love it. I really must try this technique, thank you.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
