Keep It Simple

Hi everyone. The last 2 weeks have flown by and it's time for a new challenge at Try It On Tuesday.

Thank you to everyone who joined our Use a Stencil challenge. And also thank you Ina for being our host.  I loved seeing all the different ways people used stencils, and some of you have some really great stencils too.

This time our new challenge is

Keep It Simple. 

I have another card to share today. I made this one when I made my stenciled cards for our last TIOT challenge.

For my stenciled card I had used watercolor paint with a stencil.  When stenciling with watercolor paints you get lots of wet paint on the  actual-not cut out parts- of the stencil. 

For this card I flipped  the stencil over and took what had been the top and made that the side which would go up against the paper.  By taking a paper towel and rubbing the wet side down,  it transferred all the excess watercolor paints onto my paper, and I came up with this fun background. 

I then stamped the moon on white paper, colored it, fussy cut it and added it. I stamped the quote directly onto the card. And finally I added a few sequined stars to finish it off.

Here's the image now mounted on a blue card.

You have the next 2 weeks to join our challenge at Try It On Tuesday. We accept all kinds of art.  And I would be remiss if I didn't also mention that you need to check out all the great art shared by the design team.

I hope you're into making something simple.

And thanks for visiting my blog.
