This is the last week in June and my final hostess week for this month over HERE at CAS Colours & Sketches. I will be back hosting again later in the year ;) I have really enjoyed hosting the challenges this month and popping by all those who have joined in each week.
Anyway, as this is week no.5 it is the dreaded double week! Though I have an easy one for you and it uses my FAVE colour combo of ALL time...
What do you think? Fun right...? This is how I went with the sketch and colours...
I amorally getting into the swing of these Clarity Stencil Brushes that I have been using HERE and HERE. I still need a lot of practice especially with this SU! stripe stencil.
I think I should have temporarily adhered in-between the stencil lines to keep them down better and for the ink and brush bristles not to sneak behind them! Practice makes perfect though :)
All the supplies are listed at the end of the post and as I have used stencilling again on my card I thought I would enter my card into the "Less is More" challenge HERE.
Ok, that is all from me just now. I have so much I want to "squeeze" into a few bean free hours that I know time is just going to fly by!
Be sure to hop on over HERE to see what the other CAS Colours & Sketches girls have made using this weeks challenge. I assure you that you won't be disappointed ;) Plus all the info on joining in on the challenge and link up can be found there too. I hope to see you in the gallery!

Absolutely Fabulous Bev, love the stripes at the edge and prefect sentiment on textured curve!
ReplyDeleteThis card is fabulous! I love the stripes against the curve and the variation in color since you're stenciling instead of stamping.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous card! So bright and a great layout/design. I love the stitched edge and big sentiment, so fab. Thanks for an awesome Less is More card!
ReplyDeleteYep, I agree a fabulous card. I like stripes in the curve, shouldn't work but it does, so well!

ReplyDeleteSensational stencilling Bev. Those hot colours look perfect I can see why you love that colour combo. I love the fluid curve against the rigid stripes - so artistic!

ReplyDeleteRocked it Bev! Your card really stands out and grabs your attention. You are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI like how the colors are blended along the edges of the stripes! Your card is terrific. You've been a fabulous challenge hostess at CC&S throughout June! :)
ReplyDeleteThe sentiment says it all, Bev! Your stenciling is marvelous; I'm intrigued by the Clarity brushes, which I think you've mastered...

Love the typeface of the Fabulous, Bev and in fact I love the whole card. It's so fun - I'm not sure that you need any more practice with the blending brushes. Liz x
