Funky Fossil Designs "Baroque" stencilled Card



I came across a piece of white card in my stash of an odd size.  Too big to bin, too small for a card itself.  It wasn't even wide enough to make an ATC, so I decided to make a quick card by creating a stencilled central panel, balanced out by a co-ordinating piece of cardstock.

I used "Garden Patina" Archival Ink through the Funky Fossil  Designs "Baroque" stencil ensuring that the main design was in the centre of the piece of card.  I found some cardstock in a similar shade to the ink and mounted the stencilled panel on top of it.  I then adhered this panel on to my white card blank.

Using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, I stamped the sentiment which is part of a stamp set by Funky Fossil Designs called "Small Print 2" on a small off-cut of white card, cut it to size then mounted it on a piece of the same cardstock used for the stencilled panel and adhered into position.

This card really was a quick make.  Even taking into account the time looking for an appropriate stencil, cardstock and stamp, it took a maximum of ten minutes.  I love cards like this!

I forgot to mention, we had a smattering of snow in the evening.  It was interesting to see Rosie re-enacting Bambi's first steps, as she skidded her way around the then frozen snow.  I'll leave you with that image!

  2. Such pretty soft blue for the stencilling and backed with a lovely coordinated piece of card. A great way to use up a scrap of card Sam. Hopefully the snow has gone by now. x
