CASology Week 80: Purple + FMS121 + Stencilled OCC

When I saw the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches, I decided immediately I would mask the circles and combine a couple of techniques from the Stenciled Online Card Class. Kristina Werner had stamped the inside of a stencil, then inked the edges, and I loved the way it looked. With the CASology Cue Word being "Purple" this week, I had my color palette.







I made a mask with two circles and stamped a Lawn Fawn Backdrops image in the center with Memento Grape Jelly. Dusty Concord Distress Ink was blended over the musical notes and then the birthday sentiment stamped.


A few clear and purple sequins add the finishing touch.





I have a long history of loving purple - I might have shared before that, after considering a thousand different shades of beige, we painted our house in Seattle purple - yet, it is a color I rarely used when papercrafting.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie

  3. This turned out great, Jacquie. I haven't tried that technique yet, but I'm now going to die cut some circles and try it. ;) I like how you used the sentiment as the square. Anything else would have changed the mood.
